Confirmed from Tejon Park'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.

Hiking area that's good for kids, and also popular with equestrians.

🏃 great for running 2 mentions

“Great trail for a daily hike or run”

Nice easy trail, great place to gather your thought, get some steps in (6k+), and be in the hills of the Antelope Valley.

★★★★☆ — Charles , Dec 2020

Great walking/jogging trail. Dress appropriately and bring water. Go EARLY in the morning to avoid extreme heat.

★★★★★ — Kevin , Jun 2018

Amazing view and a wonderful rodeo grounds set-up. Beautiful trails for family outings. Bring water.

★★★★★ — Jeff , May 2022
