Very muddy in parts but I was still able to run it...which was not an easy feat with 1400 feet elevation gain. I’d like to do it again when the trail is in a better condition so I think that makes this a good review. Also, note that during the view of the bridge from Forest Park is clear no matter what season it is.
Pros:-Great views (At least two!)-Mildly interesting layoutCons:-Horrible parking-Many homeless, camps, trash, and on the trail drunk and stumbling.-After parking you must walk along the side of the road with no sidewalks.- Muddy when wet-Lots of roots and dipsOverall:Come here to snag a picture or two for the collection, but bring friends and protection! Not for the wildlife, but from the people.
~ Was My Home For 3 Years! ~ Beginning of The Tarzan Tribe! ...now AKA The Traveling Tribe (Yes a Tribe of Nomads) ~~ 99% of the people who hike through are purely awesome! ...the other 1%, closed minded yuppies who dont hike regularly.~ High Traffic Trail. Being close to the St Johns Bridge A lot of college hikers and tourist travel along this trail.

Interesting parking area, fun trail.
Decent trail, otherwise lackluster. The nice view of the bridge is right at the beginning.
Such a cool place
Quick n dirty straightup with a view o the gothic st johns bridge. Will make u sweat.
Forest Park at its finest with a sketchy entry way.
Beautiful
Good urban hike
Its a hiking trail not for bike also the trail is going different direction than on the map.
