Confirmed from Colby Trail, Glendora, CA'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.
Picturesque area offering a short hiking/jogging path to a hilltop for expansive views.

“It's an easy trail for a morning walk, not crowded.”
Really Simple hikes with amazing views. I came on a Monday around 9am with my dogs Very few people which for me is good because i was able to get my dogs of leash. The rain has made everything green and it's beautiful right now.
Great trail and easy. One way up & one way down. If you wanna a tougher workout take a side trail and back up the way you came to the original trail.
Great elevation of 800ft. Rough step selections of the trail in the upper portions have you believing your also done when you are just getting to the next hurdle. A hydration pack 2.0L is required to complete to entire trail and make it back down hydrated.
Nice short trail. Not too difficult but enough up hill to make you feel as if you are hiking. Not usually too crowded, and has good views overlooking the city.
