This well known 5mi loop is a great workout. All the trails are well marked and heavily used. Regular tennis shoes will provide most of the traction you will need. The hours the gates are open vary depending on season, staying open longer during the summer. There are signs to watch out for mountain lions, but I haven't heard of any sightings in years. Why you have to yell and shout a telephone number to a mountain lion I have no idea. Also, the sign doesn't say what name to yell at the mountain lion to call for. Do mountain lions even have cell phones? And what kind of reception do they even get in these mountains? Anyway, I have seen deer here, often in the grass, between the chaparral, and even crossing the road. Some snakes here and there, and while there may be rattlesnakes, I've never seen one in the several years of visiting the trail. If you wish to leave the loop, there are a lot of side trails that will add to mileage. I've easily done over 9mi with very little repeat sections. You may want better traction on the less traveled paths. The biggest drawback in my opinion is the cost of parking. At $7 for 4hrs, the city of Claremont has made coming here more of a luxury than just a workout space.

Priss !

Good trails that can go from 3 to even almost 10 miles. Definitely recommend. Good for families as well.

It has a good hiking trail, parking is 7dls for about 4 hours. Going up is 2 1/2 miles and there's signs that tell you every half mile how far you have walk so going up and coming down is a total of 5 miles but honestly it doesn't feel that bad, at the top there's benches to rest for a little and take pictures of the nice view.

How long does it take for you to do the whole trail? An hour or 2?

Heidi i | Aug 19, 2018
Dan MacLachlan | Aug 19, 2018

It's a 5 mile loop so it obviously depends on your pace as to how long it takes. It can also depend on which direction you choose to climb the trail. I personally feel going up the Cobal path is more challenging than going up the Burbank trail. Where the Burbank side starts to climb immediately, there are fewer really steep parts and there are plenty of switchback. Starting on the Cobal, you will walk for 3/4 of a mile with a slight incline before the path really starts to climb. With less distance to cover the same increase in elevation, coupled with fewer switchbacks, the Cobal path is a more challenging route.

Is the loop stroller friendly?

John Haddad | Aug 19, 2018
Dan MacLachlan | Aug 19, 2018

Depends on the stroller. If you have a "jogger" type stroller with pneumatic wheels you will be fine. A hard wheel type stroller would be both tough to push and a very rough ride. Not that it can't be done, it is a dirt packed fire road type trail, but it would make for an interesting journey for both the "driver" and the passenger.
