Confirmed from Tupancy Links' 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.

“A nice, easy trail when you just want to do some light walking and grab a quick view of the ocean.”

🐕 dog-walking favorite 4 mentions

“This reformed golf course donated for conservation purposes is a wonderful place to take your dog for leash free walks.”

Nice walking trails with elevation changes. Many dogs are usually walking with their owners. The view to the beach is Beautiful 😍. I easily get my steps in.

★★★★★ — Jennifer , Jan 2024

Pretty walking trail through an old golf course! At the end there is a beautiful view of the ocean!

★★★★★ — Andre , Jul 2024

One of our favorite walks on Nantucket - not too long, very easy to access, and with fabulous views along the way (town in the distance, the water, etc.). If you are looking for solitude - this is probably not the trail for you - as there were definitely a lot of people.

★★★★★ — Dwf , Apr 2023

Beautiful trail loop where you are allowed to let your dog run off leash. Please respect the beauty and pick up after your dog, though. There is a station by the trail head for #2 bags and a place to throw filled ones in.

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.
