Confirmed from Trailhead #1'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 Trailhead #1

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (15 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

I wanted to go biking but this was a hiking trail. I was here at this park for a family gathering. The shed was clean and a nice play area for the kids. this was only my third time going on a hiking and it was with friends. It was nice, even better the second time with bug spray on😅

If you like walking in the woods for hours and getting lost you will love this park

★★★★★ — Tytyistheman , Jun 2020

Very nice small trail suitable for running 5K. Each round is about 1.7 km, need to run three times to get your 5K. Very cool temperature because of dense trees. A small part of it is a little muddy, just avoid that section. You can easily spot that.

★★★★★ — Kianoosh , Jun 2024

If you serious about start hiking on #1 marker, here you go. A little hard to find.
