Confirmed from SCIP Recreational Trails' 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.
Public park offering mountain biking and hiking trails that are suitable for all skill levels.

This local trail system is by far one of the most popular. Very good beginners course and great for the younger ones to get comfortable riding. A definite must.
Very nice trail! Easy hike with my dog, well maintained trail, everyone we met along the way was super friendly. Be aware this is also a biking trail.
Me and my dog had so much fun! This is a decent long trail, watch out for bikers as some don’t use a bell. There are also signs and maps throughout the trail so you won’t get lost, very helpful.
i "hike" the trails, it's an absolutely beautiful area and, as long as you respect the bike riders, they seem to respect you. in this area, crutcho and soldier creek meet up and dump in to the north canadian (36th and midwest i believe) the fishing is incredible all along the stretch.

The practical stuff
- AccessPosted hours — posted hours below; park gates sometimes close earlier than the listing says
- SurfaceNatural surface — easiest on the joints and the most fun, but expect roots, rocks and mud after rain
- DistanceNot reported. Trail systems often quote total path mileage rather than a single loop, so measure the route you actually want before you drive out.
- ShadeNot reported. Assume some of it is exposed and carry water in summer.
- DogsWelcome, per reviewers. Leash rules vary by park — the trailhead sign is the authority.
