This is an amazing trail with numerous paved and unpaved paths. Perfect for a stroll, hike, or jog. I just keep coming back. Great for the whole family. Beautiful for a photo shoot, full of scenic views and artistic flare, including a garden labyrinth.

We were visitng our kids and decided to walk our furry grandchild.along the trail. Such a tranquil and beautiful trail.. The butterfly garden had butterflies visiting flowers and shrubs making the walk enchanting. Loved it!!

This park and trail are pretty awesome. There is a really cool playground that my daredevil 2 Year old was all over. The trail has some pretty cool sights that she enjoyed finding. Clean area and easy parking.

A great place to be its a great trail about 2.6 miles long 3 big hills and then the last paved Hill going backup into the park. KEEP PUSHING!!! Awesome vegetation WELL maintained I love this place.. Im the guy always running around carrying the 35 pound weight, Lets get some

Amazingly beautiful walk! I definitely love where I live!

Amazing trails. Very easy. Kids and mom enjoyed it. Cool things to see. Worth the drive.

Fabulous place to come and enjoy the day. Yes, you should do some research to find out if its the right season to visit - depends on what youre looking for - but thats like any other Gardens; Its SEASONAL.We had our engagement pictures taken here and it turned out absolutely gorgeous!

Very peaceful and quiet. Saw some ducks, a heron and plenty of lizards. Shady, paved trail with gems like a maze and community art

It so relaxing to bring food and having them under the shades on those tables then stay a while to read or just enough to enjoy the nice cooler air under the shades of the trees...

We loved the trail! There was so much to see!

Very popular place to walk. Paved trail and dirt trails. Benches.

Great place to walk or just relax in lovely atmosphere, beautifully landcaped and well maintained.

Beautiful short trail shade a real small river which give it a nice touch. And well maintained good place for elderly, children, casual Walker. Have fun . Please dont bring your drama here.

Fun and easy park for a walk. Signs said there is a butterfly area there but we could find it. Still enjoyed sculptures along the way and beautiful landscape.

Really great local park consisting of multiple trail paths with various stops. Theres a maze, a butterfly garden and art contributed by the city. It isnt very vigorous or demanding. It does have great scenic areas.

I play PokèmonGO, Wizards Unite and Munzee. Tons of stops, gyms, inns, greenhouses and fortresses for the first 2 games along the trail. And its just a great paved trail to walk on.

Love this place! Mostly paved but couple miles arent. Lotsa art effects around and kid friendly.

I was walking my dog there for the first time, wondering why it took me so long to find this gem right in the middle of the city, so close to my house. I walked by the pretty, babbling brook, really enjoying it. But then I saw a huge snake laying almost across the path. I thought it was dead...I warned another dog walker coming the other way. She took pictures of it, but walked by. I warned a bicyclist heading toward the snake. She wasnt worried and sailed right by it. So, after much deliberation, I decided to just walk my dog quickly past it, which I did. It isnt a long trail at all. I havent been back...

Gorgeous, well kept but still very natural setting. Paved and dirt paths. Would love more easily accessible restrooms as we have young children. Maybe at least in one place near the trail? We really enjoy the art and seasonal decorations. Great place for family pictures.

Wonderful place to walk. Hardly anyone wears masks even though signs are posted everywhere advising to do so.

If you want to relax. This is a great place to do just that. If you like walking then the trail here goes for miles and the beauty if nice

This is a hidden gem in the Mission Viejo no matter age, shape or orientation. Gorgeously preserved area great for walking and running and everything is near by, the library and civic center are within a mile away. Dont miss this favorite spot for children of all ages.Its best to go at or before sundown.Thats when the fairy magic appears.

This is my favorite place to hike and run. There are so many paths to take, its great!

Nice big park,able trees for shade and appears to be well maintained.

I love walking the trails here, great scenary. All kinds of flowers blooming lately.

This trail is for all ages. The trees provide shade. Stream and birds sounds are very relaxing.

Our favorite area for one-hour dog walks with a variety of dirt and paved trails,hills, shade, and lengths.

Great mix of out-and-back and loop. Start at the parking lot on Margarite, near Del Taco. Signs are a bit tricky, lots of options for paths to take.

Lovely places to walk, ride bikes, and hike. Excellent place for dogs too! Highly recommend this place.

Easy trails with both paved and dirt paths. Lot of shade. Nice vegetation and stream with water.

Lovely places to walk, ride bikes, and hike. Excellent place for dogs too! Highly recommend this place.

Backbone trail of Mission Viejo. Length about 3 mile long and about 400 feet elevation gain. Trailhead starts at Pavion Park!

Super family friendly trail! The little ones loved it. They have a bunch of little hidden fairy houses scattered all around the park and trail.

I dont know who you are or what you want from me...just stop following me!

This trail is a nice easy trail to take your kids or your dogs to. The missing star is because a few places on this trail smell like raw sewage, but only fleetingly

Such an awesome discovery! Love the outside public gym at the beginning of the hike, beautiful art and free parking.

A wonderful place to walk in a lovely garden environment!

Nice little park. You could never tell that this magnificent place was in the middle of Mission Viejo. You fell like you are in the the forest. Lovely places to walk, ride bikes, and hike. Excellent place for dogs too! Highly recommend this place.

A nice place to walk, stroll and hear birds sing.

Very open, wonderful forested trail.

Nice place to visit but very crowded.

Beautiful hidden neighborhood gem

Love this place never knew it was here until the covid-19 hit

Between the park and the beautiful Oso Creek Trail it gets no better . How blessed are we in S OC to have this and Laguna Niguel Community Park as two of the best nature areas to explore for hiking and bringing the kids too .

Great trail for a quick run or nature walk. Trail is Mega Dog friendly as there are multiple drinking fountains with dog dish’s for your 4-legged companion. Just be aware that coyotes are common when the sun sets.

Great place to take the kids, they have swings, slides and nature trail to keep the kids at bay and very educational place to to see nature. Theres a wide field to play football or soccer, trail to keep your leg stretch, kids play area, bring your pet to keep you company, and site to do a quick picnic.

This trail is family friendly place with lot of things to do . There is a very nice playarea with a big slide.we were here for 4 hrs.Many trail options are available. We didnt do it with a toddler. But definitely coming back to visit again

Beautiful place for a walk with the dog! And the community center and senior center are both very nice. Going back soon to take another one of the many trails.

I walk here quite frequently in the morning with my puppy. This trail is really nice and you feel safe walking along it give. The number of others who use the space. On the south side of the creek the trail is paved with plants, art pieces, and a good amount of shade. It connects to Norman P. Murray and the playground by a somewhat steep paved walkway or stairs at the further end.

Absolutely gorgeous and serene nature space and trail within a developed surrounding. However you feel far far away with the babbling Creek, forest of oak, maples, eucalyptus, pine and beautifully maintained trails. Cross the bridge and end up at the labyrinth, or peace tower, or the butterfly garden. The sculptures and mosaics scattered about are perfect places to rest and meditate. Absorb all the living green and listen to the birds, and reset your inner mindscape to match this tranquil landscape.

Really awesome walk. Scenic!

Love this trail - great way to get out in nature in the middle of civilization.

Do a 6 mile hike on this trail regularly. Mostly flat

A very nice, lush walk.

Nice place for a walk or a short run. Takes you next to Oso creek all the way.

This trail is a treasure! It is obvious that the community loves it as it is well tended, clean and marked by many community art projects.We loved the hedge maze (which was ungroomed, adding to the adventure)!

Great facility, lots of room to play, good amount of parking, bocce ball court, dog fountain.

My son and I really enjoy coming here to exercise, walk, relax and breath the nice fresh air from nature. Its one of our favorite spots to come and feel energized and ready to continue with the rest of our day

Nice and green and kid friendly trail and there was a great playground near by

Great place to walk and hang out with friens or dog.

Nice and shady.

Oso Creek Trail is a beautiful location. There is not a intense hiking trail there, just so you know. It is just an extremely well-maintained trail in Mission Viejo, CA. It is a great place to play Pokemon GO. It has multiple trail entrances, so choose which one you want to start with. If you go a certain route, there is a outdoor playground by a building called The Norman P. Murray Center. Norman Murray was the first mayor of Mission Viejo. It is also a good area to walk your dog. There is no one that ever says they dont like Oso Creek. There is a place with a little maze, artwork on then ground in certain areas, and if you come from the Jeronimo entrance to Oso Creek; there is a big paved hill and if you go up it, you see the Norman Murray Center. There are really cool exercise stations there, too. I would really recommend Oso Creek. I am David Parsons, a Local Guide in Orange County, CA. Hope you liked my review!

A big trail with many places in there

Its a very nice place for a walk. The park offers many family friendly trails. They even have gym equipment.

It is well groomed and a lovely place to walk!

Great walking, running, and biking in a nature setting and away from cars. Excellent preservation and use of a watershed. Clean and well maintained.

Good trail for weekends hike

Beautiful place but I wish there were more maps around. I love it here, very peaceful

Big fan. MVs treasure trail. Enjoy.

Nice and clean with a lot to do for the kids. Dog/kids friendly. There are trails to walk, playground for kids, and grass area for free play.

Great place to bring kids, or just go for a leisurely walk. Lights for night time. Playground and community center with clean bathrooms. Nearby ball fields for soccer, lacrosse and baseball.

Nice walk

Theres really no better place than this in South counties. This place is just pure magic. Beautiful expanses and trails to traverse, top notch parks and playgrounds and always something fun to explore. Currently theyre running their fairy home hunt, which was fun for me, but enchanting for the kids. If youre looking for a great place to spend a few hours, look no further.

The locals are nice its always great to get a little exercise and go on a bike ride or walk.

The trail is well kept. Its a nice easy to walk trail. Great for walking with small children.

Beautiful walking trails and outdoor work out equipment. My happy place.

I live right next to this creek, only a 20 second walk, and there is frogs and salamanders!! The inky problem I have with it is that there is INSANE POLLUTION!! And by pollution I mean ripped up couches in the water, cigars, chairs, tables and litter!!! Also, poison nettle on the paths! I got stung by it! The saddest and worst part is the pollution. This is a huge reason why animals are going extinct. It would be nice if you guys can catch people littering this much. Anything for an animals safety! There should be a HUGE fine for littering. The world needs us!!

My only problem is that there are no bathroom.

We went for the trails and to go fairy hunting and the kids had a great time. The trails are mostly flat so the kids can ride scooters or bikes. There is also a playground that the kids enjoyed.

Great place to go for a walk or a run. The trails were mostly paved and very wide. The local art was very cute. Lots of folks walking their dogs.

Gorgeous- the maze is an unexpected delight. Kids loved the playground too.

It is a nice place and very spacious that you do not want to leave from there I fell in love with the nice and striking family place

One of the best trails I’ve ever been to. Super quite, clean, peaceful, and STUNNING. Not only is it gorgeous but there’s so many trails you can go down so you can feast your eyes on more than just one view!

Great ace for a morning walk. Nice people along the trail and no bikes.

We were not able to find the fairies:( but the park is beautiful.

Great Trail.

Fairy walk was my girls favorite and I liked the walk

Beautiful place to walk ypur dogs

Absolutely love this trail! Great place to walk with a stroller

I had a very good time here. The Oso Trail is near the Norman Murray Center, and by the way; Norman Murray was the cities first mayor. It is well maintained, and a beautiful area to walk the dog. Visit it soon!

Awesome trail, we went to see the fairies, however they will return in November. Nice play ground ! Worth going .

Beautiful park and community center!

Excellent place for familys and pokemon go
