We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Cheeseboro Canyon Trailhead (South) 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.

“Spotted a pack of beautiful and healthy looking coyotes on our way into the parking area.”

Perfect day for a hike. Sun was bright, and the air was cool and crisp. Spotted a pack of beautiful and healthy looking coyotes on our way into the parking area. Also spotted several acorn woodpeckers with their bright red heads. Couldn't have asked for better day.

★★★★★ — Irene , Mar 2023

Nice for mountain biking and hiking. Beautiful views and different terrains as you explore deeper in on the trail.

★★★★☆ — Anthony , Feb 2023

Lovely trail with sweeping views. Portable toilet at the parking lot/trail head. Dogs on leash accepted. You might see horseback riders and mountain bikers. The length of your hike can be adjusted as there are several trail branches throughout the area.

★★★★★ — Frenchsweeets , Apr 2023

This was a lot for me, being out of shape after my recent injury & also was my 1st time riding a mtb. Awesome trail tho, tons of fun & cool people. I just need to get my cardio up & a better seat for next time

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.
