The trail is shady unless you go to walk along the ridge, which is more exposed. WATCH OUT for poison oaks. They are everywhere. There are many splits on a trail that can get you confused about which way to go. I told my friend...Read More

A beautiful setting of nature at the Nature Center and extending park trails! It’s an educational experience for young and older visitors to learn about the local wildlife. A short hike of under two hours may be done here, even when the Nature Center is closed....Read More

Great place to go for a stroll. Pick what level you'd like in the super manicured trails. It doesn't matter if your 3 years old or 70 they have something for you. The walk under the trees is so relaxing and hearing the light stream...Read More

Gorgeous location for an outdoor wedding! I photographed one here in July, and the trees provided lots of much-needed shade for the hot weather. Trails are wide and relatively flat, so very easy to walk on in wedding attire. The amphitheater is a great blank...Read More

Has a small playground and programs for the kids. Mostly a hiking destination although there is an area by the parking lot I haven't checked out. If available take an available map or a photo of the one there so you don't get turned around....Read More

Short, family-friendly walks. We take a stroller and stay on the main path, but there are some trails that have stairs. Cute place, lots of birds to listen for, trees and streams. As with any nature area, there are cautions: poison ivy, rattlesnakes, etc. Letting...Read More

I went for my friend’s wedding. It was beautiful and simple the path is dirt but not rocky where you could walk in heels. She was able to have her dog in the wedding.

Amazing peaceful hiking trail with tons of activities for kids and adults. They have reptiles and frogs in cages for you to learn about. They got archery and a beautiful amphitheater style venue for weddings — I witnessed a wedding today over there.

I love the roadrunner ridge trail. It is an elevated climb that is easily hiked. Also, there are other lower inclined trails among native foliage. It's a gem in the concrete jungle.
