Confirmed from Schoen Place'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.
Waterfront spot featuring eateries, a brewery and boutique shops, plus picnic areas.
What runners say about Schoen Place
Beauty along the canal. Nice place to walk, bike, sit and enjoy a nice day. Good restaurants and ice cream along the way.
Convenient shopping district, with marvelous reuse and repurposing of light industry buildings including the old Coal Tower. Parking can be a bit pinched during busy times, but there is a long gravel lot bordering the Pittsford Dairy property that alleviates that somewhat.
I have visited this place my whole life and always found it clean, relaxing, safe, and well managed. I run here year-round and they even have porta-potties in and cleaned during the warmer months. Wonderful area.
Lovely walk. Parking available but sometimes in summer a little crowded. Although I can (they are gracious) use the Bell Tower wash room an update from the pubic outhouse could be provided.⚘🤢
