This trail now extends to Mountain View in Loma Linda...
You can now reach this trail in Redlands at the end of California Street on the Southern edge of the Santa Ana river. Somebody needs to stop assuming maps don't change. I haven't explored past the listed trail head on this map yet but I hope to make the trip to Corona soon.
It's a good trail .Most of it is inside of a gated community. I could not get past the security of the gates.
I was excited to run on the Riverwalk Trail. Unfortunately the reviews are all from many years ago and things have definitely changed. On a beautiful Sunday morning I was the only runner, passing homeless people and their tents along the way. I couldn’t run through several of the undercrossings because there were homeless men sitting on the trail at the bottom. In one case two men were passed out with their legs sticking out on the trail. I had to backtrack and cross to the other side to avoid a large group of homeless men standing on both sides of the trail. Much of the trail is surrounded by chain link fences to keep the homeless (I’m assuming) from setting up camp under the overcrossings. I would never use this trail again. Much better to fight the crowds along the West Cliff trail.
My husband and I walked this path and under a freeway we passed 6 grown men and one woman bent in half seemingly paralyzed. They were unable to do anything to hurt anyone but the forested ditches to the side of the path most likely had hungry drug adicts. I would not recommend this path, especially the southern part of the
This mixed use trail travels through woods, down quiet neighborhood streets, and over bridges. There are sections overlooking the ocean and Mad River.
We almost didn't go because a previous reviewer spoke of people camping/living on the trail. We saw no camping. The bridge is graffitied but didn't mind too much.
Short section of gravel/dirt and a rough, needing paved section (also pretty short) near Mad River Bridge. We started at Clam Beach and road to Mad River Beach, which is past the trail terminus if you turn right on the newly paved Mad River River Rd. Very little car traffic. Our route was about 13 miles round trip.
It’s a nice trail. Good concrete and is an overall fun trail to ride. It would probably be even prettier if CA got some rain and the creek was full. Decent though, saw some snakes in the creek!
Very, very beautiful bike ride, a little bit longer than it reported here - closer to 7 1/2 miles and I see that some people posted even longer (8 mi). Very well marked through the town, but not so well marked once you get out of the town. Going through the trees, and even the small streets, looking at the gorgeous houses - that most of us could never afford (¿) - was super fun.
First time riding this trail and all I can say is amazing. It’s an easy safe ride along the coast that’s not too long for a beginner bike rider, offering beautiful views.
Beautiful flat ride along Humboldt Bay from the Eureka waterfront to the Arcata Marsh. Connects to trails heading to the south of Eureka and to the north of McKinleyville for 25 miles of safe and scenic riding.
Mostly straight, good paved trail. Like another review stated, you have to go up to the nearest stop light for a few corssings but otherwise a nice trail following San Fernando Rd. Took it from the nearest point to my home to the train station and back on my OneWheel. About 13 miles round trip. Am going to ride it again.
