Join runners and hikers this spring to celebrate the trails of Brady’s Run Park. Nearly all of the park’s 2,000 acres will be on display, as the course hits every corner on a unique and challenging loop. Rolling hills will have you climbing wooded ridges, traversing lakeside trails, and descending through groves of hemlock.
