"A very nice public park with about twelve miles of easy walking trails, some by the Penasquitos Creek and Waterfall. It stretches through a diverse canyon area in the suburban San Diego sprawl. Horses and mountain bikes are allowed on the trails."

"The walk there is about 4 miles and 4 miles back. It's kid, dog, and horse friendly. There is a river and lots of trees. The water fall is beautiful also. Don't walk alone. There are cougars, big deer, bobcats, and coyotes... oh and snakes. I left my family and ended up walking alone, scaryyyy. I was so afraid and praying, lol."

"Not a bad spot for a 7.5 mile or longer hike in your backyard. Waterfall was a good feature though busy with lots of people."
