Great hike. Trails well maintained and parking was adequate in the lots. Good day to be outside social distancing!

Beautiful park. But I thought to leave a comment after seeing a shady looking man, just standing there by himself, as I was going for a walk. I saw him from afar and he saw me. I felt eery but kept going. I was thinking maybe he was standing there looking out at deer or a creek. When I walked passed him, I noticed there was nothing there; he was just standing there. After walking only about 5 feet passed him I turned around before I got deeper into the woods. I would most certainly go back to this beautiful park, but only with my boyfriend.

Fantastic biking, hiking, and chilling in the crystal clear water! Videos to be uploaded. Come watch, judge, and offer suggestions :)

Great place for the dogs, a few places were muddy but to be expected, it recently rained, but just be careful when hiking, I wiped out once lol

The trails are very well maintained and its a beautiful hiking spot for the family

Great place decent trails.

Beautiful park full of hiking and mountain bike trails. I rode 18 miles on trails and there was still plenty more that I didnt do

I love walking my dogs here. We go everyday...even in the rain! Lol

Happy place! Beautiful. Great maintained trails.

Great place to hike or bike

Middle Run Valley Nature Area holds a great deal of adventures for everyone to enjoy. The trails are well mapped on several Apps. Hiking fhd the trails would lead to a fun morning adventure. The ideal adventure at Middle Run is to Mountain Bike the trails. They have MTB trails setup for all levels of riders. In the Area, they have a small MTB course with banked and jumps built into the course. Over all the, the Middle Run Valley Natural Area is a must see and explore adventure location.

Had a beautiful time. I took the snow goose trail.they do have a big board at the entrance that shows the different trails ; how long they are etc. Went on my lunch break with my lil dog. Got a nice lil recording of baby birds. Which you could hear though out the hike at different places. That was really neat because i never heard baby birds sound like that. I only did half the trail . there is no parking fee. I do have a yearly pass to get into the state parks any way.

Awesome mountain biking at this park. Many miles of it too.

Nice for bikes and birds ( See Tri State Bird Rescue and Research )

Great for mountain biking and hiking/running but very busy during the weekends. Not great for birding because of all the activity. The mountain bikers were all very respectful and polite, matter of fact, the best place Ive been for giving you a heads up they are coming and how many in the party.The trails are marked on the board at the trail head, but not very well marked on the trails. The birding trail is not marked at all on the board, and not on the City of Newark parks website map. You can find the birding map on Delaware nature society website in their brochure. Its a shame we missed the birding trail the first time because of this.

Nice area to take a hike or mountain bike

I throughly enjoyed my walk at Middle Run Valley Natural Area. There is obviously a determined effort to preserve this habitat! The trails were well marked - both in the forest as well as out in the fields - the small bridges aided in crossing the creek, and the dirt bike riders had what seemed to be an obstacle course of sorts. Upon exiting the forest, I found an array of wildflowers and honeysuckle and had the pleasure of meeting a couple of hawks.

Great trail for biking, hiking and running

Great area for mountain biking. Has a lot of trail area and a great skills trail.

Great place for hiking, just keep an eye out for mountain bikers (also great for mountain biking!).

Best riding trails hands down. During week you have the place to yourself. Did 9 miles and didnt come across any other riders and only 1 hiker.

Good biking trails, but not too busy.

Love this spot. So many trails you could wander forever

While Im not a fan of the narrow residential road to get to the park, nor the long gravel road to get to the parking area, the park itself is great. We go running on the trails (Lenape to Mill Race to Snow Goose to Mountain Goat to Corkscrew), and the hills are great, the views are great, and there are lots of opportunities to do some extra movements and exercises. In addition, there is no hunting at this park, so its safe all winter. There are lots of trails and connectors available, so you can go a variety of routes.

Always love hiking this park, great bird watching and very quiet

Such a nice park. The trails here are great for an easy walk or MTB!

Hit the bike trail yesterday with some friends. Ended up doing 8 miles what a fun trail. Bring some water youll be thirsty. Pump track entrance is super cool but not fun when youre leaving. Plenty of trails to go get lost on

Beautiful spot for hiking with dogs, BUT all of that beauty and fun wasnt worth it in the end for us. Every time Ive gone here Ive left with ticks on myself and my dog (who is on a preventative). Beware and be prepared/treat your clothing before coming here. It is really fun and pretty but BUGGY

A great place to height a great place to bike. It has a great view even when theres morning dew. Please remember to clean up after you dog and especially your horse.

Great place to go for a nice hike and enjoy nature. Just a heads up, be alert many bicyclist are in the path. They were all kind, but can sneak up on you. Also had to refer to All Trails app to make sure we stayed on the right path. We came across several others who got lost on the the trail. Not always clearly marked.

Great bike trails

Great trails with skills park and pump track. Fast flowy sections and plenty of rocks and roots. Will definitely be riding here more often!

Great Mountain bike trails, I wish they would allow more night riding though.

A great place to watch change in the seasons with someone you love

Awesome place for mountain biking or hiking. 30 miles of run trails!!!

Nice trails that are well maintained though not marked very well.

Great for biking and hiking

Went mountain biking there with my brother. For being in Delaware, they had some nice, challenging single track

Beautiful trails...had the All Trails app which was super helpful when I was turned around completely backwards

Beautiful, serene, and a great workout.

We love hiking the many trails here. The trails are well maintained and the woods are beautiful and peaceful.

Went looking for the Mason Dixon marker and found it. The trails are clearly marked. On our walkabout we saw Red-winged blackbirds, male & female cardinals and a mallard duck on one of the ponds.

I spent a few hours here Sunday but had no luck finding the pump track which I was bummed out about..but the trails I visited where pretty awesome

Well marked and maintained trails. Plenty of parking. I run here, but the trails are more for mountain biking. Theres even some bike skills areas.

Cool spot

Love this park! The trails are as close as to nature as you can get! Saw a lil Gardner snake slither across the path! Was the coolest thing! Will be going back to explore the other paths!

Great place to mnt bike, hike well marked trails plenty for everyone to enjoy

Some great flowy bike trail sprinkled with skinnies and other wood obsticals

Remarkable, especially for the price (FREE). This is primarily mountain biking although there are some nice hikes. - There are some nasty biking climbs, terrain as whole in intermediate to advanced. -- I still think Fair Hill is the best place for mountain biking in the area, but I enjoy the trails here a lot.

AMAZING! The trails are well kept, adequate amount of parking and the signs are clearly posted everywhere. Would definitely love to come again.

Best mountain biking in the tri state area

Great well maintained xc MTB trail network. Has a bunch of extra features to make the ride more interesting or challenging, including a bunch of skinneys, a series of rock obstacles, and a short one-way windey twisty trail that you can session.

Great place to develop mountain biking skills

Went to drop off baby birds

Hike, bike or run the trails. Bring your dog, your kids and explore. Lots of easy to follow trails. Some short, some long to make great loops.

Really good place to hike by yourself or with company, beautiful views of rivers and valleys

Best trails around for biking, hiking, dog walking. Beautiful but wear good boots. Hills, rocks and streams abound!

Nice set of loop trails so you can vary the distances

Excellent mountain biking.

Beautiful trail system for mountain biking and hiking. The trails are very well maintained by volunteers with the Delaware Trail Spinners Mountain Bike Club.

Great trails

Nice green space in New Jersey

Nice trails!!!

Saw bigfoot very polite

Amazing variety of birds here, thanks to amazing work from the conservation experts at Delaware Nature Society and from the Delaware Spinners I think theyre called. So love hiking the trails there!

Great place to bird during the week. Need to watch out for the mountain bikes that share the trails. In some instances the trail is not wide enough to easily step aside.

Helping with some roofing work. Nice place.

Great MTN Bike trails, nice variety and plenty of miles to enjoy, loop it with White Clay Creek

Beautiful trail,

Awesome biking trails, beautiful scenery.

I love this bike trails

Great birding trails. Easy and moderate hikes. Mountain bikers love their trails here.

Beautiful place! They have great hiking trails for a long hike or mountain biking. Plan to be in the woods though.

Beautiful scenery clean will definitely

Nice local area to hike.

A really great place to do easy to intermediate mountain bike rides. Lots of roots, a few rocks here and there and plenty of flow. Look for Logzilla off of the Snow Goose trail for fun log piles to conquer.Also connects to White Clay which has even more fun flow and an expert skills course full of skinnies, a suspension bridge and other obstacles.

Always a great place to be outdoors.45-minute loop and no bugs!

One of the best places to mountain bike. Awesome trails for pretty much all levels.

Nice place with lots of bike/walk/run trails I think it’s part of White Clay Creek state park and if you want a a better trail map just download a bike app like Trailforks or something. There’s a bunch of smoothish single track trails not to many steep hills and even a skills park and pump track which you can find with Trailforks or leave a comment asking me and I’ll try and explain where to go.

Great place to enjoy nature in Newark. Great diversity in bird, salamander, and plant species. Great trails!

Nice

Amazing biking area, so many different trails and its well maintained.

Great walking trails!

Wonderful place to hike with your dogs.

No mask!

Tons of great trails that are perfect for running, hiking, and mountain biking. Im still amazed at how connected the area is and if you know where youre going, you can get to just about anywhere in Newark.

Great trails, i bring my dogs here alot, you can always find a nice crowd here.

Great place for a hike

Beautiful winding Trails, bird calls constantly, were really lucky to have this Natural Area set aside.

This is some of the most sweet mountain biking on the east coast. Mile upon mile of just absolutely sweet singletrack to shred!

Nice place, quiet great place to relax and enjoy being outside!

Fun place to swim

Love this place for mountain biking

One of my top five favorite mountain bike trails.

Best spot for fall migration of land birds in DE, excellent trails.

Great place to park for MTB trails and hiking.

Best MTB in Delaware

Best local park for MTB. Very nice and good trails.

One of my favorite flow trail systems for hiking or mountain biking.
