Los Liones Trail

This trail is nice and is well maintained and is full of nice bushes and nice views. There is also some alien looking bushes on this trail.

Nice short winding hike with some great views. Took us about 35 mins to reach the Paseo Miramar Viewpoint (1.5 miles). There were a couple of small parking lots and also plenty of free street parking. Saw some dogs along the trail which is absolutely fine by me but we did notice a sign indicating dogs are not allowed - but given the overgrown brush and vandalism/graffiti it’s easy to miss.

I loved this trail. It's not extremely well marked, so I had to just guess a few times. The path is narrow - hard for two people to pass without one having to step to the side - and there is lots of lovely vegetation, flowers, trees, etc. You get nice views. There are some great lookout points. If you wanted to propose to your girlfriend it would be perfect. :) The climb is steep in places but it makes for a nice workout. I was there at about 5pm and I went one and a half miles to a lookout point so it made for a nice three mile trek.

Fantastic out and back trail. Offers breathtaking views after a very short hike and the views only get better as you continue upward. Recommend continuing from Los Leones around to Parker Mesa as you get somewhat different scenery on the hike there and the views at Parker Mesa are gorgeous. The hike to Parker Mesa and back was 7.5 miles or so round trip and we did it in 3 and a half hours. Recommend planning for 4 if you will have frequent stops or spend more than 15 mins at the mesa.

Los Liones is a nice local hike. Although it’s got a little bit of a climb (I believe ~600 feet) it’s good for beginners. It’s an out and back trek that is well traversed. Go early to get parking and avoid the crowds. This hike is on the shorter side at about 7 miles and 3ish hours. You will love the views!
