For some easy off-road running in the western part of Harrisburg, the Grandon Farms Trail is a good bet. The paved multi-use path starts in the Creekview Park area, where there are tennis courts and athletic fields. Start on the short Creekview Park Path, and then use Grandon Way to connect to the Grandon Farms Trail. It’s 1.2 miles to Sears Run, where you can then continue for another 0.7 miles on a more rugged grass/dirt surface to Cherokee Dr. Combination of woods & fields.

Add-Ons: There’s are some nice roads in the area along a creek and around the Armitage Golf Club, though most lack sidewalks/shoulder.
