Confirmed from Sherwood Trail Greenway'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.

What runners say about Sherwood Trail Greenway

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (26 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

Great connector trail between Sherwood Drive and Green st, heading towards courtland park.

★★★★★ — Dustin , Dec 2017

It's a nice paved shady walkway but stinks like sewage...so take a stroll as long as you can stand the smell from the underground pipes. I say...no thanks but my dog loves to go there.

★★★★☆ — Susan , Aug 2018

Nice area for a walk on a paved trail. Beautiful trees especially in the fall.

★★★★★ — Bill , Aug 2019

I walk my pups here daily they absolutely love it. It does keep a smell tho. that's to be expected seeing sewer lines all through the trail. It's still a nice quiet walk.

★★★★★ — Scott , Jun 2026

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.

  • SurfacePaved — asphalt or concrete. Fast and predictable, runnable year-round, and fine with a stroller
  • 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.
