Confirmed from La Sierra Drive Trailhead'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.
Relaxed, 2-mile loop trail with wildflower views and lush green space that's open to hikers, runners and cyclists.
What runners say about La Sierra Drive Trailhead
“Absolutely one of my favorite places to do a quick two mile intermediate hike great workout great views!”
“I went to this trail from Google by myself it took an hour for a walk of total loops no shade but a really nice view you can see some 🐄 and enjoy watching the birds around”
“The whole loop is around 2 miles for an easy hike.”
Nice 2.1 mile loop with flat terrain. Definitely some steep hills! Beautiful.
A very nice short hiking trail. The whole loop is around 2 miles for an easy hike. The entrance to this trial is located at a cul de sac residential area. Park on the street and enter the trail on the hill. It was a gorgeous day on a Wednesday when we visited the trail.
Absolutely one of my favorite places to do a quick two mile intermediate hike great workout great views!! Also love all the critters here! ❤️ Edit 12/30/24. Still one of my favorite spots. Rarely crowded and I recently pushed myself on a 17 mile hike as I'm getting ready to do a Grand Canyon hike in 2025! 💪🏽😎
Heaven on earth, for me. Decent for resistance and close to 5 miles if you go 2x. The views and terrain quality is great. Parking and accessibility great.
