Great safe, and less trafficked location. Trash cans and restrooms at the main entrance. A path for horses and a separate for bikes/hikers. Get here early around 8am and youll have it all to yourself. Dog friendly but must be on leash. Lots of dog poop though so watch out. We occasionally see rabbits but no other wildlife thus far.

Open space for everyone. Gentle, rolling hills. Well groomed trails. One of the best marked trail systems Ive ever been on. You almost dont even need a map. And always a coastal breeze.

Nice wide trail, most other hikers were cordial and polite. Came across an obnoxious cyclist, but it didn’t sour the scenery. Very peaceful,good cardio.

Very good walking park...people on the trail very nice and respectful..Very clean trails and restrooms.What is needed in the vehicle parking area are surveillance cameras on tall polesThis will prevent those who drive around looking for areas such as this area to vandalize vehicles..At the moment...do not leave what is deemed valuable visible in your vehiclesThis is a very good place to go daily..Dont let the self serving self centered people still your joy and fun..

Perfect place to train, whether is biking running, walking meditating. A challenging hike with great views, it can get hot bring some water.

Great hiking, great trails. Big hill is worth the hike! Be sure not to leave things out and visible in your car! So many people leave things so that they can easily be seen through a window! Be aware!

Ideal place to hike, jog or bike. Beautiful scenic views.

Great place to trail run. Love the uphills.

I was looking for a good cardio workout, Badger Hill trail fills that need perfectly, head out of the parking area heading towards Badger hill trail, youll have a gradual climb, no shade, do early on hit days

I havent hiked in Salinas before. I didnt even know that there were any trails, like Fort Ord National Monument Badger Hills Trail, to hike in Salinas. It was a nice surprise. Interesting, that this trail could be as short or as long as youd like. It is not shaded, so its best completed in the fall or spring. Very open and offers lovely views.I ended up hiking 8 miles total with about 1200 feet of elevation, which was theoretically not a difficult hike, but in the sun makes you feel more tired than you really are. There were a lot of people in the beginning, but pretty much nobody after the first 2 miles.

Great scenic place to get some exercise in either on foot, bicycle or horseback.

Beautiful place with many routes for walking or cycling even better to ride a horse

The path is simple, but well maintained. I think its completely beautiful out there. Very quiet and a good place to get some exercise with the hills for people and their dogs.

Its a nice hiking experience and the kids loved it.

The scenery is amazing! Hiking, dogs on leash, biking, horses. The trails are STEEP so be prepared.

Friendly people and I loved it the one that got the muscle in the legs two up hills on top of hills

Beautiful area with lots of options for trails. There are two parking lots, so it was easy to find a spot. Some of the smaller trails looked a little overgrown, but the gravel road was perfect.

Great views, not too difficult

Its peaceful n great place to get some exercise

This area is great for hiking, biking or just a nice walk outside. There are so many trails to choose from, but be careful to choose the right trail for the level of hills you want to take. Some trails offer almost constant uphill slopes and others keep you at somewhat level ground. There are many great opportunities for a good selfie with the sun coming up over the nearby mountains and if youre lucky you may even spot a bunny to take a picture with!

Rolling brown hills with little shade--brutal on a hot day. Trails were wide and I encountered few people. Pretty views of surrounding hills.

Great hike on the five loop but no shade so be sure to wear a hat. And dont forget water.

This is a great hike...i go weekly and have begun to LOVE it!!!

Great trails, rolling hills, beautiful scenery... what more could you ask of Gods country. Access from the 68 is somewhat hard because of the speed cars travel at. But for the most part, the area is well maintained.

Ultra convenient parking w drop toilets. Always space available. Running hiking cycling and horseback riding. Off leash dog walk area moments from the parking lot.

Love these runs

This is a really cool park today. A ton of trails and roads to bike, walk, run, hike or whatever else. I take my dog here all the time and there are even areas that are marked and allow dogs to be off leash. Beautiful views of the rolling hills. And some of the hills are substantial, so take some water if you are going for a run.

Great place to hike! I was lost for an hour, luckily I finally found a paved road and a wonderful woman drove me around til I found my car. Google failed me! Advice: take a map the trail numbers can trick you!

Great parking, great facilities, and great information. It is also dog friendly.

Good food and good service. Has pizza, sandwiches and pasta. Breakfast served until 2pm.

A good place to stop over if one ever might find themselves in a position of expression that can only be satisfied by letting go of all that is and everything which isnt or should have never tried to be...Beginning first with the letter P.Exit off the half-highway Road you are probably white knuckling your way through and relax when putting it slowly I to park and exhale a sigh of relief.Bathrooms are fully stocked and waiting to be refreshed with the letter of the day you most surly will bring onto it.

Great hiking. You can walk the trails for days. Some nice and big. Some single path trails. Everything is super well kept.

Bring sunscreen! This is a nice dog friendly hiking area, but large areas are very open and exposed

Absolutely love this place, love hiking here, and the scenery absolutely beautiful.

Exelen place for hiking

Good place to hike and enjoy the beauty

Beautiful hilly trail! There is a plenty of parking at the trailhead which is very convenient.

Beautiful. Walk there almost daily

Good for a work out or run. But not much else. No destination... Just a bunch of windy hills and no trees.

Beautiful place to hike. Was not what I was expecting at all. So many trails so little time!

Acres upon acres of hiking, biking and horseback riding trails. An incredibly beautiful place with an amazing history.

Nice area for a hike, lots of hills and nice view, if you ever go up there I recommended to take extra water with you

Good trails for hiking, biking, running. Lots of parking. Clean vault toilets.

Gorgeous!

Great for gravel grinding, not so much for mountain biking.

Lot of long easy trails over gentle hills. Gets warm so bring water.

Hiked on the trail. Well maintained nice views.

Great spot to start hikes, runs or mountain biking.
