I met my friend on a recommendation for a good hiking area. I was very amazed. The trails are very well maintained, along with beautiful views of the city at the top. The volcanic rocks in addition are great to see. The parking lot provided more than enough ample space. Just remember to always bring water! Definitely plan to come back soon.

Wonderful hiking area. I think they shouldn’t allow dogs on the trail too much dog shit. Some of these dog owners feel it is the park rangers responsibility to pick up their poop.

Great hiking spot with many criss-crossing trails giving a variety of route options. East parking lot is the less trafficked. Going north (right) from the parking lot you can: Circumference trail to basalt to ridge and back to circumference gives you a nice 7.5 mile jaunt. South side is exposed to developments, so sight and sounds of housing. Can definitely see snakes on the trail so keep an eye out. Several large ant colonies around the east parking lot. Minimal shade.

A fantastic hiking spot with a good mix of elevation and a moderately easy trail. I went with a group, and we all had an amazing time enjoying the scenic views and fresh air. Definitely worth the trek!
