Confirmed from No Name 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.

🏞️ beautiful scenery 16 mentions

“Stunning views of the canyon throughout the walk and just past three miles in you'll come to a gorgeous bridge that's perfect for lunch or a picnic.”

Great easy to moderate hike along water. Perfect for anytime of the day. The trail goes through a piece of private property and the creek is a water source-you'll see signage for both. Dogs allowed.

★★★★★ — Nicole , May 2018

This is one very rewarding trail. Stunning views of the canyon throughout the walk and just past three miles in you'll come to a gorgeous bridge that's perfect for lunch or a picnic. Would've loved to have finished it off and gone to the end but we were pretty toast.

★★★★★ — Stephen , Apr 2022

Gorgeous place along the creek with Lots of places to swim, climb and hike. Trail branches off in several different places so there's always something new. You'll also be able to see the remnants of a old mine along the way. Hike is very steep and not very accessible, even I need to pace myself and take breaks.

★★★★★ — Dess , Aug 2018

Beautiful trail but DO NOT attempt the spur that cuts across to Grizzly Creek Trail that is posted on the map at the trailhead. It is very steep, not well marked, and risky with lots of loose footing and fire damage. The crossing at Grizzly Creek was not passable and we had to double back.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
