Spring Boulevard Trailhead

Tucked away in the south hills fancy neighborhood to start. It's an uphill climb that's moderate up to Mt. Baldy. There's a great open view with a looping trail at the top. One side you can see Springfield direction and the other windward side there's a view of Eugene with fern ridge reservoir in the distance.

This is not a trail for a stroller. Pretty steep. If you want to do the whole thing then make the 1st left at the top. I went the wrong way and walked up hill in the sun. Really pretty, majestic almost. Berries everywhere. I did about 3.15 miles in an hour. I was really booking it though.

This beautiful forest trail in a super posh neighborhood zig zags up to a peak with gorgeous views of valleys and forests all around. It does the thing the best Eugene hikes do-- makes you forget the grit and sprawl and desperation down in the valley.

Perfect out of your house but still in your neighborhood getaway. Whether you do the Mt. Baldy loop or go all the way to Spencer's Butte, the experience is always inspiring. Respect the neighborhood if you park. Be safe, mask when not 6 feet on narrow trail. As per asphalt surface makes this one year round friendly.
