2024-06-05 20:20:35I’ve gone to this “hero’s mountain or aka mount Miguel mountain hike “ more than once on this specific day I decided to come alone . I had never seen a rattlesnake or a snake in person in my life while hiking . 🥾 of course I thought it was symbolic to find one the one time I’m alone . I was hiking with no music to be aware of my surroundings. In my personal opinion I think if others were to hike alone then to stay alert of your surroundings and try to be in the moment by having no music .i do believe I was aware and found the snake 🐍 in my path because I was silent 🤫 able to hear all around me . Will I go back on this hike yes . I know how to be safe and I just hope you all can take my advice to be safe too please !

2024-05-19 22:17:48This mountain was quite a challenge to take on, and yet was an incredible experience. This is a fantastic workout with a breathtaking view. If you have not gone before then you should start by setting a hiking date, THIS IS A MUST DO!!!

2024-03-31 14:16:54It was a perfect day for a hike. There were very few people on this day. My ultimate goal was to place a small American flag with inscription, Baltimore Strong, in support of the city after the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge. After retiring from the US Navy after 30 years of dedicated service in 2018, I called Maryland my second home.

2024-06-04 19:07:09Good quick dog friendly hike (4.4 miles) that starts from this neighborhood and goes up the mountain. The path has been traveled by too many people not following the signage or fence lines creating alternative paths or “shortcuts” which ruins the environment and terrain for any wildlife.

2023-02-07 03:49:01Always a great local hike right in the neighborhood! It’s tough but doable, even for kids. I love getting a picture at the top. The hike back down is a breeze. Give yourself about an hour round trip to complete. Parking at the park is easy and always available.

2023-02-13 20:26:36I regret not wearing proper hiking boots. Its slippery from all the small rocks and gravel going down the steep trail. It was confusing at first to stay on trail since there arent many marks. I guess you walk in a zigzag direction until it gets more steep uphill and than walk straight up to the top. The view up there is worth it. And would be perfect for a picnic date. I seen many small children doing this hike so its not too bad as long as you got the proper hiking shoes.

2024-04-09 04:10:51Nice hike. No shade so bring a hat, sunglasses and wear sunscreen. Pretty steep from the get-go, then it levels off a bit, then it gets super steep again. At the top you can see the flags and a beautiful view of SD. Lots of crawlers like lizards, spiders and snakes. Lots of birds and flowers right now. The trail is a bit messy but they have put up signs that you can follow. Watch your step, Lots of Ricks especially going back when the mountain, yet to take tour time so you dont slip. Family friendly and dog friendly. Lots of nice people on this trail. Its never too crowded.

2023-05-14 15:33:05One of the amazing hiking we been in San Diego. Difficulty wise it can be moderate to hard, if u have some experience in hiking consider it has moderate else hard. If u hike on early morning you get nice view on top. You can see Mexico from top.
