We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Byrne-Milliron Forest yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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.
Forested reserve and park featuring trails, hiking, and vistas.
What runners say about Byrne-Milliron Forest
“The best dog park ever We drive to this park from San Francisco and think it’s well worth it Amazing views from the top but the forest is no less beautiful”
This is a hiker's paradise. The trails for hiking is for advanced hikers with steep climbs and slopes. Wear good hiking shoes. The trails are full of markers and little trinkets. Can be a fun scavenger hint type of hike. There are two vista points worth visiting. The views are gorgeous.
My husband and I just discovered this hike and we absolutely loved it! I think it's wonderful you can take your dogs with you. We found some turkey tail mushrooms and enjoyed the forest.
Wonderful trails and great views from the top of the ridge. Wonderful deck at one trail to sit and have lunch. A little hard to get to but with it. Not crowed at all. Porta potty in the parking lot.
Nice park with wide paths both shady and more open. You hike through the forest for a mile or so. Then vistas with views to Monterey and Santa Cruz open up. Some trails wind through dense fern forests, others through oak.
