The Southern Walnut Creek Trail is a 31.7-km out-and-back trail that is generally considered moderately challenging. It's a great place for birding, road biking, and running, with a paved multi-use trail that goes by a lake and offers nice views, plenty of shade, and a smooth paved trail. The trail is open year-round and is beautiful to visit anytime. Dogs are welcome, but must be on a leash. The trail surface is paved concrete and smooth, making it navigable for most wheelchairs and mobility equipment or stroller users. The trail has some road crossings, so caution is advised. Highlights include nice views, plenty of shade, and a smooth paved trail, although some users have mentioned heavy bike traffic and some inclines. Reviewers recommend sunscreen and staying hydrated
