Confirmed from Saddler's Woods Conservation Association'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.
Historic, well-preserved woodland featuring several trails, plus old trees.
What runners say about Saddler's Woods Conservation Association
“Scenic trail with stream, but very short, good for local residents or a quick stop if you are in the area”
“A chance to experience the calm and peace of nature without the travel.”
Saddler's Woods is almost hidden behind a shopping center in Haddon Township. I'm so glad a local meet-up group alerted me to its existence! It is a patch of rare old growth forest and when you walk onto the trail head from the street, you are immediately in a different world.
We visited the 2nd annual pumpkin walk and it was excellent! Well worth a visit!
Small, but nice wooded area. If it was bigger and not so close to the schools, sports fields, and busy roads, I would give it 5 stars. Unfortunately, you can basically always hear either the cars on the roads or if you go at the time I went, kids and crowds screaming and whistles blowing constantly during some sports…
It was a beautiful day with overcast weather. I have accidentally entered the trail in the saddler woods. What I have experienced is totally awesome. The long trees, the small creek, the wooden trunk to cross the creek, and the bike trail.
