Confirmed from Spring Valley Trail'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.
Calm area featuring horseback riding, hiking trails and picnic benches, plus a lake.

“Great place to go on a easy hike with kids.”
It’s a beautiful trail.. may be 30-40 min walk.. went on Apr 30 2022.. the grass all dried.. saw couple of black tailed deers.. too to have places like these to de stress..
It's a little park but surrounded by beautiful trails. Very peaceful and quiet.
It is a relatively short hike (about 40 minutes) with a bit of a climb. But it sure is pretty, with multiple house ranches and houses to pet around. I'm not sure how the house riding works, but it seems that it does. Parking is $6 for the whole day and there is ample parking space.
Easy trail. We went early in the morning and saw a lot of fauna. Turkey, Rabbits, Deers.
