Confirmed from Baseline Trailhead's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.

“Nice family-friendly trail.”

Quick, easy trail. Great for beginners. I think it’s about a mile long. Beautiful mountain views at the top

★★★★★ — Nicole , Apr 2025

Very Easy Family hiking trail that leads to other trails. Trail lets you see over the Phoenix area.

★★★★★ — Tipthecap , Feb 2025

Always a great hike. It is a decent challenge but nothing hard-core. The trail has different points that it will split off and you can choose a path that is suited to your comfort level. Overall a good hike and I have always enjoyed coming here.

★★★★★ — K , May 2023

Nice little hike think it was 2.4 miles total. I would bring my family to do this one. If you have small children just b know there's a few inclines they may find difficult. I like that the signs made the trail very easy to follow. It intersects a lot of other trails.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
