Loops, as that term is used on this website, refers to those trails that result in you finishing in the same place that you started. Loops are very useful for adding distance onto a run as you can combine them with one another or repeat them to precisely achieve distances. Although I do not have every single loop at Phipps Park/ Maclay Gardens referenced on this website, I have included those loops that are most frequently traversed and that contain quality trails and aesthetically appealing scenery.
