Confirmed from Still River Greenway Trail'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.

“Great place for all ages to walk, jog or take the dogs out.”

This is exactly well maintained and clean park. It is a very nice and safe because is located right next to the Brookfield Police Department. It even has 911 landmarks incase of an emergency. It is a nice and flat trail the whole way through if you are handicapped, including handicap parking.

Great place for all ages to walk, jog or take the dogs out. Love bird watching here too! Can get a little messy under and over the bridges during inclement weather, especially after heavy rain or snow— but it’s still such a terrific resource for getting exercise since many of the walkways are paved.

Nice meandering trail on pavement goes in two directions. Next door to the police station. Paths are marked for an emergency. Walkers are friendly! Dogs are on leash, not overcrowded during the week. Kinda tight if yr riding a bike. Or the serious walker😁It's a quick 1.5 miles round-trip, 24 mins on the main path.

★★★★★ — Linda , Mar 2023

Love this place. Nice trail. Very clean and beautiful. Took my dogs for a walk they were so happy. They have limited parking space, but additional parking is a few min away. I will definitely recommend this place.

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.

🐕 Dog-friendly 23 mentions

“My only concern are the dog owners who choose not to leash their dog, mistakenly assuming their control is sufficient to keep others safe.”
