I love this trail. Excellent views, wonderful trails (there are so many). This is a very good place to mountain bike if you have a full suspension bike, as it is rather rocky. Lots of local wildlife (careful for those rattlers) and cacti so watch your step. All in all, a local gem.

Fun hike! We parked on the street at Dove Tail and Burbury Way. Excellent entry-level hike for little ones or smaller dogs. Hike was 1.9 miles with 555’ ascent. My son and I had a blast with plenty of scenery and a few hikers and bikers. Weather is excellent right now for a mid day. Get out and have some fun!

Great for trail running, mountain biking and hiking. There is very little shade on the trails, so bring lots of water in the warmer months. From the to of Denk Mt. you can see to the ocean and all around the La Costa area. There is a covered picnic table and a bike repair station at the top as well, which is super handy. Keep your eyes open, as there are rattlesnakes in the area, however, Ive never had a problem, as long as you respect their distance.

You want a 3mile incline hike? Just when you think its a hill it becomes a challenge. Beautiful views. 70-80 min hike

Lovely trail! easy free parking. With lots of trail options beautiful views from the top. Unfortunately, plans are in motion to build condos apartments and homes over this beautiful land.

Probably San Diegos best legal trails for technical mountain biking (aside from Noble Canyon, of course). Lots of great routes up and down this mountain, making it very customizable for whatever you are looking for. If you like to spin/warm up before you climb, I recommend starting at Eden Park and coming up through Copper Creek to Horned Lizard. If you just wanna get to the climb and get some laps in, park at the Junipero trailhead and head up sitio to water tank. All the trails are great going down. Horned Lizard is fast and short, but Switchbacks is the most bang for your buck.

I ride my bike here frequently. There are other mountain bikers and hikers on the trails. The trails are well maintained and it offers some amazing views. Parking can be problematic, but I usually park on the street to enter the trails from one side.

Good trails for a hike and mountain biking. Multiple trails offer varying degrees of difficulty. Amazing views from the top!

Great place to ride your MTB. Lots of single tracks. The terrain is very rocky and technical.

Hot day! Good Ride!

Nice local hike or bike.

Great trails.

Great place to ride but it is a bit rocky..

Such fun bike trails!!!!

Great hiking. Beautiful Spring flowers. Some shade. A small river to put your tired feet in.

Somehow, Denk Mountain is a hidden gem that towers above the horizon. It has a number of ways up it: a road up one side and down another compliments a variety of trail types. Its a hoot for mountain biking and pretty fun for hiking.Kudos to the scouts who built the cabanas at the top. Thanks to the SDMBA for the bike repair station.

Fairly good hike up to the top. Picnic bench at the top with a public bicycle repair station. Good for mountain bikes. Some trails are gravel or rocky, but good overall. Several variations to increase your mileage if you see fit.

Excellent place for hiking and mountain biking...

Awsome place to relax.. just enjoying the view...

Epic hike in lacostw

Loved it! I suggest hiking shoes. Trail has lots of loose rocks and dirt. Narrow path, lots of trails. Make sure you look at the map on way in and at view point. We got a little lost. BRING lots of water.

Its not a big space, but its got a lot to offer. The trails were all built by the local mountain biking community in conjunction with the land managers. Lots of fun, twisty single track to keep you engaged. Definitely not for beginners! There are lots of sharp pointy rocks making it a good idea to wear guards/pads. Great hiking and trail running too, as the trails wind their way back and forth up the hill rather than just going straight up. Beautiful views of Batiquitos Lagoon and the ocean from the top.

You can put together miles of hiking here. A lot of the trails are rocky so watch your step.

Great hiking with excellent views on a clear day.

I actually went Mountain Biking here last night and it is an amazing place, once you make it to the top the view is breathtaking.

Good place to hike, jog or mountain bike.

The trails are amazing for mountain biking.

Nice place to ride mtb

Great hiking and mountain biking trails here

Beautiful views on a clear day

Efficient and effective use of a reserve ... with a nice selection of trails. Terrain/Vegetation isnt variegated unless you count the waterway down at Copper Creek yet, theres plenty of variety in the actual pitch of the trails.

Great local mtn biking. Many different routes to take. Single track and fire roads.

A good variety of trails to hike and great views.

Great trails. Pretty technical.

Amazing view we are so..lucky we have this national park in Rancho la Costa

Love this spot! Awesome trails and great DH

Cool trails, well maintained!

The views are horrible (sarcasm).

Great views, but the mountain bike trails are sub-par compared to some of the other local options.
