The trail runs through verdant deciduous forest along footpaths, carriage paths and, for a short distance, a dirt road. The trail features two short steep hills and two longer hills. A section of the trail commands a spectacular view of the surrounding eskers.
Piilovaara Trail merges with the nature trails in the area (marked in yellow), which provide more route options. The nature trails are not maintained for mountain biking.
