Lit Trails for Early & Night Runs in Maryland

Maryland has 15 trails with lights for night running in this directory, across 12 cities and towns — Hagerstown, Laurel, Bowie, Burtonsville and 8 more. Lights for the pre-dawn start and the after-work run once winter takes the evenings.

Labels come from each trail's own listing, its website and runners' reviews. Conditions change with the weather and the season, and gates and lights follow the park's own hours, so check a recent review before you drive out.
