Confirmed from Clark Dominguez 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.
What runners say about Clark Dominguez Trail
Great walking distance, nice nature, uphills and downhills. I'd wish having more benches, but... the trail is awesome!
A beautiful trail, there are some steep sections (15%), however it is entirely paved asphalt.
This was a nice paved trail located across from the Clark Dominguez Park, off of Crest Dr. You will need to park at the park as there is no other parking options. The trail is steep in many areas, so although technically wheelchair accessible, it's not ideal. We walked while our kids biked and scootered along.
Park at Clark Dominguez Park and head in that way to avoid the gated community entrance noted on the map. Walk across the street to the trailhead. Here on a Saturday morning and there was no one here. LOTS of hills so be prepared. Trail is paved, beautiful and quiet.
