Confirmed from West Bloomfield Trail (Orchard Lake Rd. to Arrowhead Rd.)'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 West Bloomfield Trail (Orchard Lake Rd. to Arrowhead Rd.)

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (4 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

This is a nice trail section of the West Bloomfield Trail. It is one of the more scenic sections because it has shade from the trees and all of the ponds off to the side.
