A nice area with many interconnecting trails allowing for endless day hiking possibilities. Generally well maintained, never overly crowded.
Great place for cross-country mountain bike riding or just walking no jump or tech trails, but the trail system not even 3 min away has plenty of that (summit ridge/black diamond open space)
All the trails in this area have fairy tale names :) there are edible berries everywhere!The trails can be up hill, downhill, steep and even flat. You can even find fields filled with wild flowers. Also if you can, go and check out the pond. If you try and circle the pond you may find fishies taking naps in small pools of water.
We loved visiting with our kids!! Beginner trails but I do recommend having your GPS handy if youre going to the Gnome Trail. Some trails get a tad narrow and there is some identifiable poison ivy around so dont let your kids venture off the path. Will definitely visit again.
Great walking and mountain biking trails. Fun for all levels. Gnomes have been removed, though. SAD
Beautiful area. Well maintained trails to explore. The Gnome trail is a fun place for people of all ages to enjoy.
This place is great! Lots of trails to ride or walk along.
Easy access to the Gnome Trail if you head down Stinger trail (easy to miss, look for the sign), then right on Derailer until you cross the bridge over the fallen tree. Easy to get turned around so stay right.
Fun trail to go with the kids we walked 4.74 miles but felt shorted because the kids were enjoying the Gnomes and telling stories about the little towns
Easily the most wonderful mountain biking experience for beginners and intermediate levels. The trail is marked by steep hills and descents. Overall a fun and exhausting day
Great place to walk dogs or go moutain biking. Close to Maple Valley and Black Diamond, but you feel like you are in the middle of no where.
Great Hiking, variety of different trails with varying intensity, also full of open spaces with some containing benches
My friend and I went looking for gnomes and found them! Nice hike and area, would definitely recommend!
Great hike! Kids were beat by the time we finished. Thank you to all the people that have contributed with the gnomes. The kids were excited to see all the magic this place had to offer!
This is a wonderful little hike and a great place to take children very simple and fun! If you look hard enough you will find special treasures in the trees!
Trail maintenance badly needed in some areas
Beautiful park, love all the various trails!
Great for the kids and keeping them entertained
Gnome trail is kind of cool if you have kids but its a bit of walk in before that trail starts.
Great place to live and wonderful bike riding. Not 5-star because no good parking near trail heads.
Nice hike especially for kids
Nice place but bad road
Features for every age and ability. Multi purpose use of trails - great for hiking, biking, and running.
I love the easy access to trail run or mountain bike.
Great area for hiking or mountain bike riding.
Super kid friendly riding for when they are just starting out.
Great cross crountry MTB trails.
Great trail system for walking, trail running or biking. Beautiful scenery in the trees and fun trail names.
Love this place.
Great fun, the signage is not great though
Categorically the best off road biking and hiking within the burbs in the valley of the maples
Incredible beauty. Great walking and biking trail. All shaded too.
Loved finding the gnome trail out here. So cute!
Great trail for young kids. They are usually motivated to find all small gnomes hidden in trail.
Great hiking trail, would recommend to anyone that love nature! Im from west Texas so when ever I come to Washington I always take advantage of the out doors. Gods beautiful creation..
Great trails. No restroom here though.
Great hikes. The Gnome loop is fun for kids.
Very scenic when you go Down and to the right youll find a pond BE CAREFULL THE EDGE IS SUPER DUPER SLIPPERY! But other than that it was a very beautiful place to hike and go mountain biking be CAREFULL some paths are narrow!
Last summer they sectioned off a lot of areas but I still saw people entering them
Pretty good hiking trail for absolute beginners with kids. I was carrying a baby in a sling and we got to see gnomes.
Great trails, good biking to be had here. Something for everyone. Easy, technical, climbs.
Lots of paths. Can feel a bit maze like.
Nice relaxing place to walk, friendly hikers, clean, gnomes were awesome.
Awesome trails only got to explore a little definately going back
Love to come here and smoke at the swamp
Lots of trails to wander through. Various terrain and different ecosystems on this forest make for a very enjoyable place to hike. They also support bicycles and horses. So, if youre on foot so make sure you keep your eyes up and aware of others on the trail.
So many trails, miles and miles. I love it.
Love the trail easy but used by bike too.
Nice trails. I rode some beginner blue and greens. About 7 miles worth and I didnt kill myself...so theres that. Id recommend if youre a beginner or have kids getting into the sport.
Great for a relaxing walk in nature
Awesome
Great trails for mountain biking with the family!
Beautiful place, walk nice
Gnome trail is amazing!
Great beginner cross country mountain biking, open spaces, ponds, and a Gnome trail for adventurous littles.
Blood sweat and gears
Great little hike for small kids.
Good mountain biking trails!
Peaceful lots of trails
The kids loved counting all of the gnomes on gnomes trail!
Great place to relax.
I loved the views
Five stars. would cross amazing moss covered logs and discover a valley full of wild mint and cry about the intense beauty of my home state again. would recommend for all overly emotional nature dweebs who just need to get deep in the feelings pool while surrounded by lichens and berries
Good MTB trails
Could not find the entrance using Google maps. Disappointing
Really? No reviews? Just crossed a really cool log over the creek. Switchbacks with berms! Small rock jumps! The parking lot is now open. Can I park my trailer overnight? I dont want to leave.
Good and well maintained trails. Very fun mountain bike park
Beautiful, local, dog friendly, kids friendly. Lots of trail and exploring options. Great photo ops.
Nice outdoor area with some trails. Ive seen deer and owls there. So If you keep your eyes open you just might to.
Beautiful area to hike or bike
One of the hidden gems of the area. Large area with few visitors. Great views.
Great place to ride!
This is a great trail, easy for little hikers as well as adults. Its close to home, but feels secluded enough to enjoy nature.
Great place for lots of easy trails and beautiful wooded areas. Watch out for mountain bikes.
Boring
Great! Beautiful hiking and billing tails. Well maintained.
Very nice!
Absolutely gorgeous area. Lots and lots of hiking and walking trails. Visit it on a nice day and you will be in love. Also to the southeast, theres large hills with overhead powerlines that make loud noise. :)
So neat. We made it to the Gnome trail. Great for kids.
Remember the bug spray!
This is literally out my backdoor. I ride every chance I get here and love it
