Confirmed from Lower 66 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.
What runners say about Lower 66 Trailhead
Thank you Facebook for the benevolent gift of hiking trails. Most people in pville hate nice things so this is a nice thing to have. But he warned that local morons have already loaded the trail with broken glass.
Awesome mountain biking and hiking trails on the edge of town. As I travel I love to find fun places to recreate. These trails were a lot of fun and only a 2 mile bike ride from my hotel. They also offered an excellent view of town. Keep up the great work in trail maintenance and creation!
Loved all the trails. Great for the whole family. Hiking n biking. Can go from bottom to the top. Walk around in the middle and a rail on top as well. Cool things to see along the way.
Great trails for mountain biking and hiking and a good trail to bring dogs. Beautiful views throughout and there is a picnic table at the trailhead.
