I am a regular runner on these trails in all seasons; spring, summer, fall, winter and extreme winter, you name it 😀. I highly recommend everyone to explore these trails. We are lucky to have this wilderness in our backyard. The trail is safe!

Please prepare well if you are hiking in winter as it can be very cold and dangerous if you are not well-layered! Same for hot summer day; carry lots of water. I had to resuscitate a guy who collapsed due to heat exhaustion.

Shoutout to the Rouge Valley park management for maintaining these trails and ensuring a safe experience for everyone.
