Confirmed from Wyman Woods' 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.
Park offering trails for hiking and biking, plus fields with wildflowers.
What runners say about Wyman Woods
“The woods and the trail is very peaceful and there are beautiful views all around.”
“The woods and the trail is very peaceful and there are beautiful views all around.”
“A relatively easy trail despite some knolls and cross streams along the path.”
“Good place to bring dogs out for a walk because there are many open areas.”
Even in early spring when trails tend to be mushy, it is still pretty pleasant experience to navigate. A relatively easy trail despite some knolls and cross streams along the path. Dog walkers seem friendly enough. Also pretty close to backyards of private properties but again no one seem to mind hikers.
Nice trails through the woods lead you out along the cove. The trails also connect to the bike trail. The Marblehead Conservancy started a native wildflower and pollinator program in the open fields in the lead mills area. All the flowers are in full bloom right now and look great.
Great place to go for walks, hiking or biking. The woods and the trail is very peaceful and there are beautiful views all around. Good place to bring dogs out for a walk because there are many open areas. The lake is beautiful during sunsets.
Very pleasant walking and biking trail, through woods with part along the harbor overlooking Salem. The main trail is pretty flat and shady.
