Confirmed from Ladyface Trail Head'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.
Strenuous hike up a steep trail with great views and even rock climbing.
What runners say about Ladyface Trail Head
“Beautiful and scenic views to the canyon.”
Great short hike, almost exactly one hour and one mile to the summit, 1100 vertical feet from the trailhead to summit. Views of Lake Malibou and the Pacific from the top, can add at least an extra hour and 1/2 mile exploring the ridgeline.
It was a strenuous hike but I needed it after isolating at home for too long. This hike was a staright up incline for 1 mile to the top of the Lady's nose. I couldn't finish the hike because the road just got too narrow and uneven eventhough I've worn my good hiking shoes for this.
Fun hike up the ridge. Becoming a popular hike. Climb over 1000 feet in just over a mile.
You have to be an extreme thrill junkie to like this trail top. Includes multiple rock climbing sections

“The trail itself is great, wandering up and along the crest of the mountain with plenty of rocky bits and steep parts.”
“The trailhead itself is not very well marked and easy to miss from the road, i had originally mistaken a dirt road that goes nowhere for the trailhead.”
