    For locals, it's a cute, short trail. Not difficult at all, only some slight steepness at the ends. There are some picnic tables at a point in the trail and there's parking in the residential area. Lots of people walking with their dogs. After the rain, the mountains were capped with snow, so that was a very pretty view. You can also look over the valley into the area, Ikea, Eastland Center, etc and off in the distance, you can even see LA. I heard it's super burning hot in the summer and some foos post up late at night sometimes, but other than that, if you're in the area & want a short walk, this is a neat place to check out. PS. The rock at the end is gone for awhile now from what I've heard.

    This is a great little hiking trail in Walnut in the middle of these million dollar homes! Hey I can dream I live here while walking the 3 miles round trip. Parking is easy in the residential area. There weren't too many people on a recently sunny Sunday morning. The trail is wide so you can physical distance from others, the few peeps that we saw did have their masks on too. This trail is super sandy so our shoes and our white doggo got quite dirty. But the view was perfect and it was great to get out during Covid for some fresh air. I would think it's even nicer in the spring with flowers. I didn't see any sign this trail is actually call Rock on a Cliff, there's also no rock or cliff around. However, this hiking trail has beautiful views from the hillsides that overlook both cities of West Covina and Walnut.

    Up a long residential street in walnut, located off amar rd. It's a really nice area they have private security. Not too many people on this trail so that's nice. Parking has two location, the map took me to a dead end in which I park on the curb by houses. The trail to the left isn't very long, was walking no more than 30min before coming to the end which is on a residential. I could have walked to my car in the residential area but instead just went backwards on the trail. The second trail is shabarum skyline which is a 20+ mile trail.

    2.89mi total starting off of Smoke Tree Pl. Beautiful views, great trail with a little uphill downhill and flat. Great for families and even those with strollers. And no there is no rock.

    What nice and fun little park to take the kiddos to. It's located in diamond bar not too far from…read moretarget and the freeway. There is a round about parking near the entrance with a moderate amount of parking spaces but if you go past that further in there are more parking available. The play ground is quite large compared to other smaller park playgrounds. The cool think i like was that stairs from the first parking lot with the restrooms connect to the playground. So kids can jump right into the fun. Next to the playground its surrounded with plenty of picnic tables (concrete) and lets parents sit and relax while the kids play. The playground has multiple entries with two slides? Two monkey bars, stepping stone style elevated steps, a fireman pole, etc... definitely a fun park to come to. There is a little creek adjacent to the playground where you get a nice tranquil stream of flowing water drowned by the screams and laughter of children in the background, lol.. its nice really and something that sets it apart. We did not go further past the stream but there appears to be additional tables and a trail. Had a great time meeting our friends there and enjoying some fun times with the kids in the process. My kids loved it.

    An enchanting park with a playground for the kiddos and a simple hiking trail for kids of all ages…read more The space is beautifully designed with a parking area near the entrance where the softball field is located and several more spots down the hill near the playground and benches. Once you head down the slope, it does feels like a secret hideaway beyond the trees. This was especially apparent during the late December rainfall, where the wet and gusty weather resulted in many fallen leaves. The air was extra crisp, a perfect place to run around or play hide and seek. I've also come here before during the summer, and I can tell the management takes great care of keeping this place clean. The hike itself is relatively easy with some stairs and incline as well as a nice view to boot. Exercise stations are sprinkled around the top portion which the regulars here can benefit from.

The two areas that I frequent most are the trails around the Snow Creek neighborhood, and the trails near the intersection of Meadowpass Road and Pierre Road. The trails are diverse, depending on which trail you go on. The trails near Snow Creek goes around Snow Creek Park and winds through the Snow Creek neighborhood. One trails goes from Snow Creek Park all the way to the back entrance to Mt. SAC. Elite runners practice on these trails, especially the weeks prior to the Mt. SAC Relays. Lot's of walkers use this trail in the morning. One of my favorite trails when I walk/run with my daughter is near the intersection of Pierre Road and Meadowpass Road. If you come here at the right time, you will see people riding their horses on the trails. One of the trails in this neighborhood leads to the Brookside Equestrian Center where Olympians have trained. They let you walk/hike around the Equestrian Center. Over in this area, you will see Istik Bridge. A bridge in the middle of nowhere. It is so peaceful around here, you wouldn't know you were lost in the middle of Walnut. There are still 25 miles of trails in and around my city that I have not set foot on yet. If running is not your thing, you can take a hike! There are trails for you to go up the hill to get to the Schabarum Trail. Then there are the trails around the Creekside Park. I've heard that these trails are also great for running. Rest areas with picnic tables are available at the hiking areas for you to rest. Refer to the cities website to find out where they are. Make sure you bring the trail map on their website. They have lots of trails. Some of the trails are dead ends, where you will end up in someone's backyard. Minus one star because of the dead ends trails. http://www.ci.walnut.ca.us/upload/Online%20Trail%20Guide.pdf The city of Walnut is an ideal place for hiking, running, horseback riding or mountain biking.

    New Playground for the kids!…read more I like how the playground has two areas for different ages and the city used padding for the ground under the play areas because sand is messy and wood chips get everywhere. We've been here twice in the last couple of months and my kids love it. (The city is updating the baseball/softball fields next to the playground). Parking could have a larger lot, but when the lot is full, there's plenty of street parking. And the playground has bathrooms right next to it. I hate when playgrounds/parks don't have bathrooms because kids always need to go when there's not a bathroom around. Very inconvenient when there's no bathroom. Cheers! Please see my photos. Xie Xie!

    I've been to Snow Creek Park maybe two times prior to coming since the renovation. The renovation…read moreof the park looks really nice. They added a new playground area bunch of new playground toys and just seems a lot more fun for the kids compared to the previous arrangement. The Park and play area appears to be larger than it was before which is a plus the old playground was kind of outdated, but this new one has a lot of fun activities for kids. It was very spacious very kid and toddler friendly. They also have a picnic area for people to rent space to have birthday parties and other celebratory events. There's some lighting in the playground area so even after hours you could still play for a little bit they are doing construction near the baseball field. Parking was pretty accessible led right to the park. There's a good amount of parking and then also you could probably park in the neighborhood nearby if there is no space but I never had an issue since I've been there the last two times highly recommend checking out this park and my daughter loves to come and play here.
