Confirmed from Cathedral Hills' 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.
Network of 10 mi. of interconnected trails in a 400-acre forest preserve offering views of the Rogue Valley.
What runners say about Cathedral Hills
“Beautiful, well maintained trails offered a good variety of choices to switch up the difficulty.”
“So beware that you'll be stopped at the bottom of a major incline so study your map and be ready, but it's absolutely beautiful ride.”
Absolutely beautiful! Especially this time of year; the trails are colorfully lined with all kinds of gorgeous wildflowers. It's a must see, for sure!
Great spot with miles of different hikes in many different levels of difficulty. Some very easy with little elevation gain and others you'll wish you chose a different path! The trails are very well maintained. Tons of poison oak off the trails and the mosquitos will get you in the evening. This spot is awesome 👌👏
A great trail system with lots of differing difficulties and choices. Absolutely beautiful, whatever time of year. In the winter, I loved all of the different mushrooms there were growing everywhere, spring the Wildflowers are INCREDIBLE! Summer, it's so green!
Nice trails from easy to moderate. Lots of elevation opportunities. Lovely wildflowers in bloom. Would be great if there was any kind of water available. It was a warm day and it’s easy to go through all your water before completing your hike.
