We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Telegraph Hill Hiking Trail yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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 Telegraph Hill Hiking Trail
This trail is a fairly steep paved path. The sign says 20 minutes round trip, I was able to hike up and back in 10 minutes with mild exertion. Not an easy trail for elderly/those with mobility issues.
