Arroyo Verde Park Loop

Hit

Nice hike with a few points of incline for a good workout.

Nice and quick with a lot of incline the first half. Plenty of side trails if you want to get higher and better views.

This simple loop trial was great. With heavy hills for good exercise and the many different path options allow this trail to be a returnable spot.

Nice hike. There is incline so be ready! Good hike to run on

have been here twice in a couple of weeks. it’s a good hike for beginners. not too long of a trail. offers some steep hills for more advanced hikers. lots of sun and great views.

great running trail

good times

In my experience, this is the trail Venturans hike because it's close to town and the only publicly accessible (currently) way to hike in the Ventura hills. I'd only hike this purely for exercise- trail is almost entirely in full sun, usually crowded with off-leash dogs, rutted in several spots, social trails everywhere, and a type-converted grassland (aka, highly impacted by adjacent land use and therefore mostly non-native vegetation, and a lack of biodiversity, to me personally, is simply sad). I do appreciate that there IS somewhere for locals to hike, but this not a trail I would normally seek out. Best section of trail (thought short) is on the western edge of the park- several coast live oak trees and a bit of a reprieve from the rest of a hot hike.

It’s okay for a short hike, all sun no shade, lots of up and down which is nice, no water, streams, etc. usually pretty clean tho

Great hike! A fairly easy hike when sticking to the main trail but you can pump up the difficulty a lot if you venture to some of the side trails up the hills. Make sure your shoes have tread on them.

Surprisingly nice urban trail, with views of the pcean and the Channel Islands. Bit too hot today for the dog, but we'll be back to complete the loop.

A few steep spots with sand that wouldn’t do well with slick shoes, and momentarily crosses into private property, but gorgeous views of Ventura from the top

I went early Sunday morning, the parking area is closed but you can park on the road. I went early but I'm sure it gets packed later in the day on weekends. I really enjoyed to hike and I would call it a moderate hike, there seems to be more trails further back that I plan to do in a few days. There was beautiful wild flowers, my daughter had a great time picking flowers.

Nice park with great little trail. You can see the islands in the distance. Some parts of the trail are a little over grown with wild flowers and there were lots of bee's. A Striped Racer ran out in front of me chasing a lizard. Currently you can't park your vehicle inside the park, and street parking fills up fast. I reccomend getting here early.

Fun little hike in our own backyard. With the hike up to the avocado trees (or where they used to be) you can get your heart rate up super high. Great for when there is little time to drive to a more remote destination.
