Such a lovely place to go for a walk or a hike !!!! Winter time is obviously the best time to go but early morning is always the best time summer or winter!

Lori Speis

Nice trails and good signage. Leashes are required for dogs and rangers enforce this pretty well . I always feel safe taking my dig here.

Just 15-20 min from San Diego downtown. Good for hiking , not in the summer (too hot). Oaks trail goes near a creek. Good campground for a quick escape!

Take the trails less traveled. But beware of the rattlers! There are tons of them out in Spring.

Nice park with a good amount of trail to run, hike or MTB.

James Rhedin

Bring water and poopy bags for your dogs. Please don't just leave their waste on the trail

Chuck Elias

Signs on the paths are unhelpful. They tell you what trails there are but not which direction to follow them. We talked to at least 5 people who agreed with us that the map was also not very good.

Manny Perez

The Visitor center Trial is really small and simple for beginners.. You can't go wrong with this place.

Kevin Tostado

Stick to the trails near the visitor center and dam to avoid the giant crowds on Cowles Mountain .
