Confirmed from Bogart Park Ridge Trail'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.

“This is a simple and easy hike and I'm so happy it was because this is my first hike in a very long time.”

Super fun little hike. From the parking lot to the top of the hill and back is probably about 3 miles but 2 of my 3 kids made it up.

★★★★★ — Austin , Oct 2023

This was our first time here since we moved to the area. We asked the ranger when we made it to the ranger station ($10 to enter with car) and she just said there’s 2 trail heads but didn’t point us to the right direction.

★★★★☆ — Susy , Jan 2023

I just moved to the area and decided to do a hike. This is a simple and easy hike and I'm so happy it was because this is my first hike in a very long time.

★★★★★ — Will , Apr 2019

Very nice park to visit for a picnic or large gathering. Pi nic tsbles are available and a children play area. Lots of beautiful trees and great views of the mountains. Grounds are well maintain. There is a small entrance fee if you plan to visit or camp.

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.

“Nice camp spots though we plan the camp next weekend and do the walking trails as a family up to a point that overlooks the nearby city.”
