Miner's Ravine Trailhead

Beautiful, easy, partly sunny/mostly shady paved trail with trails that branch off to the river.

Used to be a wonderful place for a quick nature hike along the creek or biking on the trails but anymore the amount of grown men AGGRESSIVELY trying to hookup with any other grown men who even step out of thier vehicles (clearly stating thier interests/needs in wanting outdoor sex). It's overwhelming, disgusting, and sadly its NO LONGER a place i feel or consider safe enough to bring my children out and around. And due to the nature of what can be heard AND/OR seen by anyone walking the trails (DAY or NIGHT), I would not recommend these trails to anyone. STEER CLEAR

Top notch trail with bubbling brooks year round. A murid of flowers bloom in the spring. There's an ancient Indian grinding stone just off the path near Roseville Road. Fun fact - the bridges over the streams are made from old pieces of the famous San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge. This is most noticeable if you peek at the massive Golden Gate colored I-beams running the span under each bridge.

Beautiful walk with both paved and unpaved trail options. We took the unpaved trail and the scenery was lovely, a perfect overcast day. We went relatively early and the trails were not crowded at all, from 9 - 10:15 AM we saw about 10 other people altogether.

This entrance isn't as good as the Sierra College or Orvietto, but it is still a nice half way point to start the trail on. I've also encounrer much more homeless on this Parr of the trail, especially close to sculpture park.
