Forest Hill Park + James River Park
10.3 Miles
Start in Forest Hill Park next to the Trail Map sign on the left side of the parking lot as you enter the park at the intersection off of New Kent Road and 42nd Street. As you enter the park turn slightly to the left and park where a row of wooden posts keep you from driving on the grass. You will see an awning covering maps and information about trail use. This sign is where your time starts and finishes.
These directions take you looping around the dirt trail loop counterclockwise in Forest Hill Park. You will leave the park and then go clockwise around the James River Park loop before coming back to Forest Hill Park and finishing the loop to the Trail Sign.
Note: Night running is allowed in this park, but it will make it harder to navigate. This trail loop is the most difficult both because of the elevation changes but also because of the roots, rocks and other obstacles. Yes, it is a challenge!
