Confirmed from Thompson Pond & Twin Ponds Trail System'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 Thompson Pond & Twin Ponds Trail System
This was a nice surprise. It wasn't quite marked as well as I would like, but I didn't expect how diverse the trail was. It's worth a look.
If you want a low impact walk, that's quiet but you can hear birds, squirrels and maybe a chipmunk this is the place.
We had a fun family walk. My husband, 5 year old niece, dog Jack & myself. We had a great time! Nice hour long walk.
