Confirmed from Woodsom Farm Park'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.

“A great place for hiking and dog walking.”

Great place for walking your dog. I have been coming here every year for the fourth of July fireworks for 30 years. It is just a very nice, peaceful spot.

★★★★★ — Kathryn , Nov 2019

Great place for a walk or jog in a nature setting with the family or alone. You will enjoy this place.

★★★★★ — Stephen , Apr 2022

A great place for hiking and dog walking. I love the variety of birds to photograph.

★★★★★ — Frank , Aug 2024

I did 3.3 miles in 1 hour and 30 minutes. A moderate trail with steep inclines/declines that connects to Whittier Hill Reservation, which is part of the Greenbelt. Not marked, but use the All Trails app for navigation. Great views of wide open fields and a few ponds that are filled with frogs and bull frogs.

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.
