オルバニー郡のおすすめランニングルート

Great park with a playground and pond. Also has public restrooms

The Corning City Preserve is known best for its nature trails and the amphitheater on the property that hosts a variety of events every year. The trails at the preserve are a great addition to a bike or run on the Mohawk-Hudson Hike-Bike Trail.

The Green Trail at The Crossings of Colonie is like a lot of the other trails in the park: paved, well-kept, and usually fairly busy. This portion of the Green Trail helps make up the loop that follows the perimeter of the park; you can always make shorter or longer loops at the park by connecting different trails.

The Blueberry hiking trails at the Albany Pine Bush Preserve are great for running. There are some steps at the top of the middle trail, but nothing is crazy steep, so it's a fun challenge. There are views when you run through the meadows, but a lot of the trails are in the trees.

Albany Pine Bush Preserve is over 3,000 acres of historical and natural history. The trails traveling through the property are a mix of rocky, sandy, grassy, and packed-dirt trails that are great for running and don't require prior trail running experience. The preserve is home to a multitude of rare plant and animal species that are unique to this climate region.

DiCaprio Park features a variety of different trails and paths, sporting fields, and a bunch of public parking. You'll likely see other people out on the trails in the park (and the trails connecting to the park) while out on your run since this is such a popular spot.

The Purple Trail includes a bunch of different terrains and views. You can expect to run through sandy trails along with packed-down dirt and gravel trails. You can connect the Albany Pine Bush Preserve to DiCaprio Park by using this trail.

The Mohawk-Hudson Trail goes through a tunnel under the interstate here. There is a parking area, some benches, and a picnic area at the tunnel entrance, and the trail goes both directions from here. This is a common starting/turn-around point for a lot of runners since the trail becomes more urban the further north you run from the tunnel.
