Confirmed from Coyote Creek Parkway North'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.

“Mustard green is blooming you can see yellow flowers everywhere so beautiful.”
Mustard green is blooming you can see yellow flowers everywhere so beautiful. The trail is clean and peaceful you can enjoy a walk with your dog, run or bike with your kids. The trail with lots of trees on both side lots of shades.
Beautiful park, very well maintained. Right next to 101 highway, dog friendly kids friendly exercise friendly, lots of shades since they have trees everywhere. The trails are nicely built.
I always find parking here, and it’s not hard trail if u take. Loop near the lake, it’s beautiful and scenic
