Confirmed from Stoller Road Trailhead - Clear Fork'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.
Family-friendly path following a reservoir, plus other trails for mountain biking and hiking.
What runners say about Stoller Road Trailhead - Clear Fork
“There are a couple of trails to choose from but I took the one closest to the lake and it was scenic and made for a pleasant hike.”
“Some trails bend off the main trail and would be probably easy to navigate.”
“Stoller Road Trail is a nice peaceful trail to hike.”
“Most look like they would be considered beginner friendly.”
Stoller Road Trail is a nice peaceful trail to hike. It’s more of a walk than a hike for most of the trail. There are a few inclines but nothing challenging. If you stick to the main trail it runs along the lake. There are many side trails to explore too, those have more hills that the main trail.
Finally made it to this gem in my own backyard. One path runs along the edge of the reservoir and offers excellent views of the reservoir. There are numerous other trails that branch off into the woods. Most look like they would be considered beginner friendly. Definitely worth exploring more.
Update: I attached a few videos of the trail I've been coming to this spot daily. The main trail is about 4 miles total ( an hour in and out if you complete), but I've been taking all of the side trails. In total, i walk around 6.2 miles with the side trails & the main trail in and out.
Easy trail with great views. The hiking path intertwines with the mountain bike paths and can be a bit confusing. Stick with the trail closest to the lake and you'll be fine! Enjoyable views throughout the hike.
