Confirmed from Westville Conservation Area'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.

We love coming to walk in Westville! It's one of Melville & Tullah's favorite spots.
I had the pleasure of exploring Westville conservation land today. This place is serene with many trails to explore. Birds singing, Hawks flying. They have trails that are wide and flat winding throughout the grounds with smaller trails throughout the woods and different terrain.
This place is what I call a Hidden Gem.. There are so many beautiful views, well groomed trails , and just very peaceful. The parking lot is small ,which is fine because there's hardly a time when there's more than two cars in it lol...
There are many new trails at the Westville Conservation Area! You can walk through the different fields and through the woods with views of the Three Mile River! A great place for a family hike!
