7.45 Trail Run – Wilderness Trail 
5k Trail Run – Clear Pond 

The 7.45 mile course, which is 95% trail, heads east out of the park before turning into the woods, where the adventure really begins. You will climb and descend steep hills, cross creeks and bridges, and if you are lucky, see deer and other wildlife. This is a scenic and challenging run.  

 

The 5K run is a rustic trail that wraps around clear pond and takes you down spooky hollow and up the steps to 7.  Follow the signs for the Clear (Pond) Trail.
