Confirmed from Tusculum Trailhead West'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 Tusculum Trailhead West
“The place was clean and well maintained.”
“Easy to do a 5-6 mile walk with some beautiful scenery.”
Good trail, solidly paved. This is the measured start, and it is at the bottom of the hill past playground parking and picnic tables. Nice out and back for about 7 miles. Front half tends to be busier, and second half is more serene along crop land.
Starting at the city park gives access to a restroom, it's a good walk with hills, there are no facilities until you get back manage your hydration! Lol
I am handicapped have to use a power chair the walking trail is accessible the whole way for me. My wife walks it working our service ON LEASH. Therefore people but it is not constant people and it dosent over stimulate the working dog. Very good for training.
Love this trail. Easy to do a 5-6 mile walk with some beautiful scenery.
