Confirmed from Retreat Farm woodland trailhead's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.

What runners say about Retreat Farm woodland trailhead

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (4 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

Really enjoyed this walk. Being able to read the information about the area was interesting. Beware .... trail is marked but there are other connecting trails. Can be confusing. Small pond, rock walls and ski jump for checking out.
