We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Tod's Inlet 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.

★★★★★ — David , Apr 2023

It was a cold day but i wanted my friends to see this park which you are able to see the skyline of NYC and Long Island. Unfortunately it was cloudy although we were able to see the skyline and a sliver a sunset still. It’s open to the public after October 31 until Memorial Day, otherwise it’s residents only.

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.
