• Bikes and horses may share the trail: check the access tags on the trail page.

How this list is made

Unpaved trails of a mile or more: a computed starting point for runners, not an endorsement of any route. The list is ordered by length (longest first), not by quality: we don't rank trails by opinion. Trails under a quarter mile are hidden.

Data © OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL); elevation computed from the USGS 3DEP elevation model. Not safety advice: check the land manager for rules, closures and conditions.
