We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Scorton Creek yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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 Scorton Creek
“Scenic hike in and around S Orton Creek.”
Wonderful creek to canoe 🛶 kayak, swim or tubing. Nice flat hiking trails, but very busy with dog walkers.
This place is beautiful! Period! If you're a nature lover definitely check it out. Plenty of parking lots and lots of trails to enjoy a hike, run or bike. When was my daughter just before sundown and got some beautiful pictures for her to pick from for her senior photo. 👍🏻🌅🥾🏃🏻♀️👟🚲🍁🍃🍂
Scenic hike in and around S Orton Creek. Appears this is a dog friendly place. Great views and several small parking areas.
