Confirmed from Robinhood Trail'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.

“Beautiful Trail walked with My Client Andy very nice”

🏃 great for running 2 mentions

“Great, easy trail for walking, running, or cycling.”

A nice trail that is paved. It's about 5 miles there and back. Beautiful scenery with a creek.

★★★★★ — Sarah , Aug 2024

Great, easy trail for walking, running, or cycling. It can get crowded, but the path is wide and it looks to other greenways. Very easy to access from multiple parking lots and paths.

★★★★★ — Kipp , Oct 2020

Good trail for running. Relatively flat. Only set up for out and back. The trail is maintained very well and cleared quickly after storms. REALLY needs a streetlight at the Robinhood rd parking lot entrance. It’s hard to see if you arrive before dawn

★★★★☆ — Frank , Dec 2021

Great spot to walk with your dog. It was quite clean, and the dog owners we saw seemed responsible. Definitely will come back for more sniffs.

★★★★★ — Aaron , May 2024

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
