Confirmed from East Wing Mountain Trails' 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.
Hiking area with marked trails and views of the surrounding area, plus a playground.

“Awesome short and easy hike with breathtaking views.”
Beautiful experience! Easy trails. Bring the kids, dogs, cats, and also your bike. The trail has it all and it's Beautiful 😍
Awesome short and easy hike with breathtaking views. Took about 10 min to get up the small hill and 30 min to get up the main hill. Effort to view ratio is a solid 2:10. Made it in time for the sunset too!
Beautiful hiking trail with gorgeous views. Lots of balloons launching the day we hiked. From the trail parking it’s maybe 1/8 mile on sidewalk until you cross the road and enter the trail proper.
The trails here are well marked. The trails are not very challenging, but the views of the surrounding area from the top are great. Will definitely come back before the summer heat sets in.
