There is a short section that is on low traffic street. In woods it is 2- to 3-feet wide on a dirt or grass surface; and on the hill in Fishers Park it is somewhat wider.

It can also be part of many different loop hikes. The Fishers Park trails offer many opportunities. It, together with the Auburn and Lehigh Trails, offer several more in combination with Old Dutch Rd, the Dominie Trails, or the junction of the Auburn and Lehigh Trails are some possibilities.
