Great park with the 100 mile plus John Wayne Trail passing through it.
We did the trail from Rattlesnake Lake Recreational Area and went 11 miles east and back. The bike trail is very scenic with a slight grade of roughly 2%. There are great trestles that you cross in this section and rock climbers to watch in about 3-4 areas along the trail. The ground was hard and mainly smooth with small rocks and gravel. We averaged 6mph going up and 12-14mph coming back!
Beautiful
Well-marked trails. We took out 5 kids up to Ragnar field and back down. 7 miles round trip. They were troopers and we had a wonderful day.
