    Great gravel parking lot and easy to access. Bring $5 for the day use even though it doesn't look like it's enforced much like the Folsom SRA areas nearby. It's American river conservancy run and maintained so there are some tags on plants to tell you what they are which is a nice little learning part to the trail. I started here and hiked to the trailhead parking lot south about 2 miles which was not terribly interesting. A good view at one switchback but that was it. Next time I start here, I'll take a left at the gate to follow the south fork like most people here seem to do. BTW lots of mountain bikes on these trails

    Nice trail to see different plants. There was flowers throughout the trail as well. There is a sign when you start the trail that there are ticks, rattlesnakes, and poison oak. I did not encounter any ticks or rattlesnakes but I stayed very cautious. In the beginning of the trail there are some white signs labeling different plants which was cool to know. There was a lot of horse poop on the trail. Once you get to the spot where the trail splits 2 ways, I went left. The right trail has a sign that states "No horses" so I am not sure what that right trail leads to. Once you keep going on the left trail, It gets a little intense. It goes uphill and its a lot more rocky with little shade. I personally wish I did not keep going cause my legs were sore the next day. Then you'll reach a spot where it opens up a bit and you will see benches. That is where I decided to turn around and head back. It is a nice view of the hills but I stopped there because the trail looked like it wasn't kept up, and considering there are ticks and snakes, I wasn't going to risk anything.

    Nice new trailhead with wide open trails in the shade. Lots of parking which is $5. Had the place to myself on a weekend afternoon!!

    Love the baby Grove of oak trees! Someday that meadow will be so shady and beautiful

    This is a great trail for little ones. Shaded and full of wildflowers in the spring. Equestrians are especially going to love being able to ride all the way to Cronan Ranch. Careful in the summer. Once the 1-mile trail meets the South Fork American River Trail, it's hot, hot, hot. And beware of rattlers.
