Was surprised to see that electric bikes were prohibited from the bike trail. There were cyclist going at least 30 mph just by pedaling alone. I don’t see the harm in a person using pedal assist or even an electric scooter going 10 mph. Other than that it’s a beautiful location!
Started at Parque Rió Hondo on the corner of San Gabriel and Rosemead. Went north towards El Monte. Rode with my family for about 4 miles and then turned back. Road trail was well maintained. Very little traffic given it was a Friday afternoon. Relatively scenic. There are several off road trails along the way but they are encumbered by homeless encampments so be aware. Try to moderate your speed in the bushy areas as there were several instances of rabbits crossing the road. You don’t want to have an accident in trying to avoid them. Would definitely do this trail again. Enjoy!
I need to get off and on my bike again and again.
I really enjoyed this trail as well as my whole family very good road to relax on
We had a great ride on this trail. We decided to start at the Cerritos Regional County Park which was a great place to start our ride! Just head all the way back thru the park to hit the trail. After we rode the Coyote bikeway we had a picnic by the lake. Perfect setting with bathrooms. My boyfriends 5 year old is a beginner rider so the concrete bike trail was perfect. However, know there is little shade and it can get very hot! The other thing to know is the bike trail is right up against the water duct so there is a very steep drop off to the duct with no fence. We rode about 6 miles and came back to the park and rode around the lake a few times! Great ride, great day and the park was perfect!
Family friendly, short and fun. Well kept with a few path ‘’oasis’ stops set up by the local residents. Definitely going back.
Coyote creek is nice enough. Wide, clean, and paved roads. Not the most scenic of routes but it’s a great trail to log some miles. Definitely will do again.
I have a bad foot and riding a bike has zero impact on it so I can go and go when trails are flat. I catch it right at the I-15 and Baseline. I'm happy.
Upper trail is about 18 miles one way. Trail condition are good, path is well maintained. Not the most scenic, but there were zero traffic intersections to negotiate. Most of upper riverbed was dry.
Pretty awesome bike trail From mountain to seal beach, there is plenty points can let you out and park your car there. More than maps shows. But in the middle, 18m ~ 13 there are some horse manures on the ground which stinks and make the road ugly and it seems nobody will clean them up. I spent about 7-10 trips to finish the whole. 6 miles round trip per trip since I do have friends to complete with
This trail is great. The first three miles are gorgeous, surrounded by orange trees, the mountains, and the equestrian center. The smell is not the most pleasant for the first half mile, but still bearable. The last three miles are okay - the San Juan Creek is not pretty by any means, but it is neat to follow the downtown San Juan Capistrano area for a little bit. I wish the signage was better when crossing La Novia Street. Signage was also a tad confusing and I actually merged into the Trabuco Creek Trail before realizing and turning around and crossing the bridge. .
