What a nice hike! Definitely uphill half the way. Broke a good sweat but felt amazing and accomplished at the top.

Beautiful trails. Close to town. Dog/kid friendly. Easy paths, not rocky. Hikes up to the tip of another landing or in a loop. Wild irises blossoming at the top along path edges. Great views. Fairy garden at middle point of loop if u watch closely

Very well maintained hike on graveled trail. 500 ft of elevation gain from top to bottom makes it quite strenuous. The views of the valley and hills are quite spectacular. You can park at the bottom on Bailey Hill, or either of the two trailheads at the top. Hike is 3.5mi if you make the full loop.

Absolutely love it. It is very steep for beginners and is not a very good path for strollers. I take the wild iris loop on my lunch breaks sometimes because it is so short. Absolutely beautiful and if you’re still you might find some geckos and a fairy garden.

Limited parking at the lower lot, car was broken into recently despite it being on a busy road. The trail itself is pretty and you can take the steeper section up or a more meandering main trail up. Plenty of critters and pretty flowers in the spring as well.

I'd give this park 3.5-4. It's hilly park with loop trail at the top & few trails branching at few places. It starts at grassy open area to more woodsy with oaks, poison oaks, evergreens, some wild irises, & wildflowers along the trails. The trail consists of rocky maintenance trail & as you climb up, it becomes more dirt. Great views of Eugene at the top! Pros: parking lot, hilly, fairly well maintained trails. Cons: hilly, no bathroom or water, small parking lot

Lovely little jaunt in South Eugene. Typically quite clean, somewhat vertical and parking can be a bit tight at the bottom of the trail so arrive early or be lucky!

Accessible, publicly-owned, and recently updated trail in West Eugene. Decent amount of parking at lower Trailhead, and mostly compacted travel path that has a moderate uphill path. There is a loop towards the top that yields some nice views. Landscape type is mostly oak savanna. Though I don't find the natural environment here quite as scenic as Spencer's Butte, it is a refreshing change from that landscape (less fir at Wild Iris). If you haven't been, give it a try!

An easy to medium-difficulty hike with many different ways to go and explore. There are benches here and there, some educational labels for the wildlife, and nicely kept trails.

Great for late afternoons when weather is cooler: more sunlight than any other Ridgeline hike. More open. Also better for dogs. Officially leash only of course, but dogs are often unleashed and then leashed when others are coming (east to see ahead for this). Trail is steep at first. 3.5 mile loop is great, plus optional extra small loops. Lovely madrone groves, lots of variety.

Always a beautiful sunset. Becoming more crowded with people who just park and don't get out of their vehicles. They're starting to develop more in that area which is a real shame.

Absolutely gorgeous. We found a lizard! And some CatsTongue.

Very nice, well maiaintained trail just off of Bailey Hill Road. The views at the top are beautiful. Mushrooms and lush vegetation line the trail, and if you look hard enough you can find some running water. Wild kitty cat spotted on my walk, pretty cute, but was unable to make contact as the kitty was spooked. Definitely a great place for a nature walk. Only downside is only one bathroom and poor parking lot.

My favorite place to hike in Eugene. I love it in April/May when the wild irises are in bloom!

Beautiful trail, a mix of steeper portions and meandering shady sections. There are places where there is water on the path in most seasons, so wear appropriate shoes. Also be aware of the poison oak, there's a lot on the trail sides. There is a port a potty in the parking lot. I just wish there was more parking.

After 26 years in town heard about this great little hike! Nice trail that takes you through the Madrone and Oak trees to the summit which gives you a nice view of the West Eugene area. The hike is a loop which brings you back to the trailhead. Not as steep as Spencer’s Butte but views are almost as impressive!

Great trail. A lot of uphill and then, of course downhill. So be prepared for that. We went early on a Tuesday and by the time we left there were lots of people. Do not go on the weekends! So many people and no parking! There is a Buck in the parking lot, which is nice. And please, ALWAYS, pack out what you pack in!
