Confirmed from Stonykill Farm Sierra Trailhead'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 Stonykill Farm Sierra Trailhead
“Place is beautiful to walk.”
“Easy hike for mom and dad.”

Always a classic stroll with some beaver dams, but ticks are serious here so be cautious and prepared for that! Easy hike for mom and dad.
Excellent information on Park board easy direction to trail & returning. Kenneth J Walsh
Place is beautiful to walk. Lots of trees down and brush over growing on the trails tho so be careful when traversing. I tried to take my e-bike thru the trails and it did not have a good time. I would say this is mostly a hiking trail. But still a good time 👍
