Dusty in dry weather, but a good workout, great views and lots of sky overhead.
You can have an easy to intense work out on this trail. I love this park because I have many options to change up the trails and get a good work out in for the day.

The reason I love this park is because there are various routes. You can take it easy or if you’re up for a challenge take one of the two steep inclines to the top of the foothills. This is Central Coast chaparral at its finest. You may see some smalls birds or hawks and a snake on hot days. Great view of Ventura even from the moderate trails.

I run this trail with my pup often. The trail switches between uphill and downhill often, so it makes a great, challenging running trail. The mustard and all the brush is growing back beautifully. Love this trail.
Great trail! lots of inclines to get your heart rate up for a good workout close to home. Trail surround by flowers and nice hilly view. Dog friendly.
Esta muy bien es corto hay subidas y bajadas y muy divertido va mucha gente a caminar
It’s okay not very green more like bushes, trees and dead grass
It’s a great local really easy fun hike to do if you want to stay close to home

Amazing recovery after the fire is in process! Easy access and a good workout. Go back on the trail along the other side of the park rather than back the way you came to make it a true loop.
This hike is fairly easy. I carried my 9month old in a carrier on me and slowed at some points due to steep inclines. I went on a Wednesday and there was a fair amount of people. Lots of different entrances to this. Once you pull in the parking lot, if you drive all the way to the baseball field and park you will find other entrances. The fire was detrimental to the area but it seems like the ash produced richer soil and the growth it has regained is beautiful. Stay off burn areas as posted but take in how beautiful all the flowers and new greenery looks.
Great trail
The trail is open with some fire damage but growing back beautifully! I took my 8 month old puppy and she loved it! Absolutely gorgeous trail with some good inclines for a nice workout. I wore my hiking boots but saw others in regular tennis shoes.
Great hike. Always busy with friendly people and dogs.
Great local trail. Well traveled and safe. I think it’s still closed due to Thomas fire damage.
Drove all the way out there from West LA to find out the park was closed due to the fires. It was such a sad vision and my heart goes out to those that live around there, but it would’ve been nice for All Trails to update/mention which trails are closed on their app. The low rating is for All Trails not the actual trail. Love and light to the county of Ventura.
good
Nice hike. Great views. The Ventura Botanical gardens are gone now. Thomas fire burned the area down. Fee parking.
Quick workout with steep inclines when arriving to Ventura. Views are great.
The “big loop” (up to the fences that border the avocado groves and along the ridge) is a great workout! On a clear day, the ocean views are terrific.
Nice and easy for a beginner who is working to increase enduance.
The hike is a good work out over all
Not a bad hike, but very narrow and a lot of sand in parts. Only a couple of steep inclines. Took about an hour.
Great for the whole family.
My favorite trails! Lots of options and beautiful views!
Love this park great for hikes and a bunch of short trails..
It's pretty overgrown in some spots, and from what I could tell it just loops around the park. The trail forked a few times and I wasn't sure which way to go.
As of spring 2017 the trail is quite overgrown in some areas, making it frustrating to hike.
People say it's moderate, which it is. But it's also straight uphill. I took a couple of breaks, also please wear hiking boots, or shoes with a good grip. Some parts are a little slippery. Beautiful scenery, but also Some overgrown plants, with tons of bees. So many bees right now.
Have done many times. Many fun and not too difficult trails. There are some secret trails that lead to the backcountry. One has access to Two Trees.
Perfect for the family. Two great kids parks and some bbq pits.
