Confirmed from Saddle Loop Trail North Bench'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 Saddle Loop Trail North Bench
“Love the eucalyptus trees and great views of the bay and city”
Great hike with the kids. The path was wide enough for the bikes to pass. It was hot the day we hiked with little shade going up the way we did, but the shade on the way down the other side was welcomed! Love the eucalyptus trees and great views of the bay and city
Trail conditions & character
“The view is way better than going to twin peaks and more secluded you could see the ocean downtown San Francisco and the bay all together it was amazing view”
