Spring Run Trail is a 2.2 mile moderately trafficked out and back trail located near Saratoga Springs, New York that features a river and is good for all skill levels. The trail is primarily used for walking, running, and nature trips and is best used from March until November. Dogs are also able to use this trail but must be kept on leash.
An enjoyable flat paved trail for running or walking, with a few stream crossings. Accessibility: The trail surface is paved or boardwalk and typically at least six feet wide. The estimated grade is mostly gentle, all 5% or less except for a steep 10% section at 0.5 miles.
If you are a born and raised city-girl like me, and you have never been on a “hike” through the woods, I recommend this as a first time “hike.” It is paved all the way and it is more for a walk than a hike. Nearly lost it when a fox joined me, but he looked just as afraid. Overall not bad.
Nice paved path, cool little place, lots of bird watching available....even got to see a blue heron this time! Flew up maybe 10 feet in front of me which was pretty awesome.
