Great trail for anyone who wants to get out and enjoy the trail!

Went for a nice hike on a Sunday evening. Easy to hard trails are available. Family friendly and don’t forget the doggies too. Nature is abundant and some shade with trees. Can have a harder hike going further north. Overall it’s a great local hike behind St. Luke’s. Come try it out if you haven’t yet already.

One of my favorite places to go hiking. Not a hard hike even for beginners. You can always turn back if needed.

I recommend coming here early morning around 6am. The sun won't kill your hike.

Very beautiful hills and views. I love seeing the sun rise. Hiking or biking is great for this trail.

There are bathrooms in the parking lot and lots of parking available. There's also a bike park and doggy park. Great place to bring dogs and teens.

Bring bug spray and water. The hike does get hard during the middle. Great place to take sunrise photos and photos of the treasure valley.

We enjoyed coming here and letting our fur kiddo play inside the new dog park area. Two areas to allow him to go and sniffing all around. It's also fun for families to bring their children. On the other side of the dog park is two bike tracks one for smaller children and one for larger older children. Looks like a lot of fun.

Sooooo beautiful!! There are so many different trails! You can easily hike them all in one day.. or bike them. The terrain is actually good for bikes. Some steep hills, but still beautiful scenery! Watch out for wildlife! I would recommend checking this place out. You have the best of both worlds .. seeing an overlook kind of of Boise, and also the peaceful nature all around you. Worth to check it out!

Absolutely loved it. First time on a trail with a bike went from cottonwood Creek, to eagle something, over to ridge run, than back to the truck. What a blast going back with the family on Sunday
