Confirmed from Six Mile Run Jacques Lane Lot'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.

🏞️ beautiful scenery 7 mentions

“This path was gorgeous and I didn't even explore it in its entirety!”

Six mile is on of the best places to mountain bike. The trails are smooth and rolling with little rock or root. It is excellent for novice and skilled alike. Just plain enjoyable.

★★★★★ — Scott , Aug 2021

Beautiful walk through woods, near fields and along the water. Sometimes not the best to walk because of all the cyclists, though.

★★★★☆ — Steven , Aug 2020

Beautiful day, only saw 2 people on trail. So if you like a little solitude, this is the place for you.

★★★★☆ — Jerry , Feb 2023

This path was gorgeous and I didn't even explore it in its entirety! Passing the bikers, they seemed to really enjoy it themselves. I ended up getting lost towards dusk, but happy to have found the road and jog back to transportation before it got too dark.

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.

“This is a great place to explore Six Mile Run from as the Black Wells Mill parking lot is often too crowded.”
