Great hidden gem of a trail in Kitsap County. On a clear day you can see all of downtown Seattle and the mountains.

Nice trail for a smooth hike. Went with some friends and family. There is a short cut following the power lines (some what steep climb) but there is a cool truck door just sitting near a tree on the path. Pretty cool for pics. Well maintained trails as well.

This was a nice hike, with a good clear trail. There was a really very nice view coming up the Gold Creek Trail. I would like more maps, or more markers for the side trails, but it would be hard to get lost up there.

Went on a hike here and took the Davis trail when it forked, it was very easy and quiet. We started at around 10:30 in the morning and there were definitely more people by noon-ish. All in all its a nice place, I want to go back and do the Gold Creek Trail next time.

This is a great place to go for an all-day hike. The Gold Creek trail is all up-hill, medium difficulty.There are many other trails that intersect Gold Creek such as Wild Cat Lake Trail, Beaver Pond, and Plummer. There are many dirt roads to hike on also. Just beware of ATVs and dirt bikes.I come here a lot and Im always able to find new trails and sights. If you go to the very top of Gold Creek (Horse Camp Vista) on a clear day, you can see Seattle.

I liked the trails, views of small falls and deep forests and mountaintop vistas. The slopes were a surmountable challenge. I will come back and take the whole Davis, Gold Creek loop.

I love this trail! Pretty views and well maintained.

What a great hike. There are lots of trails here, but if you stick to the Gold Creek Trail youll make it to the top. Its about 2.5 miles to the top from the parking lot. Youll need a discover pass for the parking lot. Its about 1000 ft of elevation gain.

Gorgeous views, easily accessible. Took us an hour 45 minutes from gold creek trail parking lot to the summit and that was a little slow. Only downside is that nearly the entire hike does not have expansive views so you wouldnt know a difference from any other trail for most of the hike.

Was a good walk wide trails. Took kids down to waterfall it took about 10 minutes to get there. They liked it was easy to walk for them.

Truly a gorgeous hike. The incline is a bit steep and constant but it is well worth the huffing and puffing. The views from the top is truly amazing.

Great little mini hike. About. 1000 ft of elevation. Gold creek trail ends and vista trail continues up to the peak. Can also head to the GC campground or make it loop with other trails. Has a nice view of Seattle and surrounding area. The neighboring Gold Mountain has a 360 view of the area if you scramble up the summit and is accessed via the same parking lot (trail head just behind the toilets and map)

Great trails that are well marked. BUY THE DISCOVER PASS BEFORE YOU GO.I didn’t know I needed one and tried to buy it on my phone when I got there but I kept getting an error message. I left a note but still got a ticket Hence, the three stars.Other than that the trail was great. Ran the whole loop.

Love this place. Many different trails twist around. Some closed to logging at times but even then you can find a new adventure.

Lots of good hiking options. Some pretty views of water and mountains.

Great riding area. For advanced riders, experts...no place for beginners! Challenging steep stuff with rocks and roots. Off the main trails are technical trails and challenge sections. The riding community tries to especially stay off the main trails during nice sunny weekend days to give the hikers a little more unrivaled use. I find the hikers and mtn bikers there to be very friendly and understanding that this place has been a dirt bike haven for many decades.

Great trail going up and down to the summit, plus lots of trails going all around. Watch out for motorbikes, horses, bicycles. Fair amount of horse and dog excrement on the trail usually so dont slip!

This is where you ride your dirt bike its a lot like tantium or hex Mountain but you dont have to drive all the way out there Green Mountain Cold Creek awesome for like a 2-hour Drive

Beautiful hike, just keep in mind you need a discovery pass.

Beautiful beginning for hikers.Boring for the majority of it.PERFECT for horse trails of the easy variety.We got kind of turned around, and signage is not stellar. Just don’t be a derp and you shouldn’t get lost.

Went to go see if the trail was any good today, found out it was closed because of the covid. Ran into who I am assuming is trail manager or someone that takes care of it at least, bald white guy in a silver dodge, while I was reading the sign that had been posted and he yelled at me saying, what the f*** is so hard to understand? It is closed. Safe to say that I dont recommend this trail if that guy is around. I imagine it is a rather beautiful trail nonetheless.

Great place to hike with the dog and see a old tin mine trails are moderate in some areas and then easy in other areas beautiful views when up on top the mountain

Trails easy to hike.

Went on an amazing and relaxing hike with my wife here. I just really wish they didnt allow motorized vehicles on the trails.

Awsome hike really easy and great views

Fantastic walk. My two year old made it most of the way

Love this place so does my dog. Some of the best spots are a lil of the trail.

Fairly easy trail. My 5 year old and I had fun getting all of the way to the top️ It is about 7-10 miles round trip depending on which trails you take

Great parking area with plenty of spots and easy to get a trailer in and out of. The trails are great as well.

Good, moderate. Took about 50 minutes to get to the top. Great view of Seattle from there. At the top theres a table for your lunch. Will do this hike again.

Busy, a beautiful hike.

Love this terrain. Great for beginners and intermediate hikers. Good for families. Watch out for mountain bikes, quads and motorcycles. Horses and the occasional runner will also cross your path. As of 9Jun2019 Tin Mine trail is closed 1/4th of the way up due to logging.

Great hike. Challenging, too. 2.5 miles to summit.

Beautiful trail, some recent clear cuts only add to the mystique on a misty day.

About a 6 mile hike great for the beginning hiker would definitely recommend, can see Seattle from the peak on a clear day and great views of the Olympics along the way.

One of my favorite hiking spots close to home!!! One of the more tame walks with plenty of wildlife and groomed trails. I just wish the other trail(s) werent still closed with how nice the weather is now!

Was beautiful... only 4 stars because some of the trail is still closed down to logging... so we had to do a lot of backtracking once we hit the tin mines...

The views at the top of this trail are breathtaking. Go on a clear day to see mountains and the entire city of Seattle from the top of the Vista trail. Not too challenging of a hike but not exactly easy either. My pup and I had a great time.

Beaver pond trail is awesome. The steeper trail is worth the trek as well.

Loved it

Lots of parking but fills up quickly. Great hike to the Vista.

We were impressed with this trail. There were a lot of cars on a Holiday weekend but we only saw a few other hikers while on the trail. The creeks were beautiful with small waterfalls and ponds throughout. The trails were well maintained. The trail does have some puddles of standing water and very minor washout, but it cannot be helped due to the clay soil and weather. In fall/winter you would want some waterproof boots. Lots of wild animals to watch if you are the quiet hiker type.

Rode the trails with 11 riders. Beaver pond was tough. At one point we saw Jefferson, mt Raineer, mt St. Helens, Seattle and hood canal! A slice of heaven!

Gorgeous views of Olympics, hood canal and for the coodegra Bremerton / Port Orchard. Get there early (before 8 am) if you dont like people.

So many trails, beautiful vista and wildlife.

Great place to hike and bike. The mixed use trail can be a little scary with hikers, horses, mountain bikers, motorized bikes and sharp corners. Seasonally it can be quite wet and muddy. So, between the horse piles and the mud, its good to watch your step. Great 2-2.5 hour roundtrip hike to the vista point. I recommend bringing a map, since the logging roads make it confusing at times.

The trails are a bit tangled, but it has some amazing views for such a short hike. Apparently there is a high car prowler issue, so make sure everything goes with you and nothing is of value sitting in the car. No issues while I was there. The view of Seattle is pretty fantastic at the top. Pack a small lunch and have a pick nick at the top! Stone tables and a great place to get away for the day. Lots of mud on the trail if it has been raining, so bring good hiking shoes or trail runners. Ended up walking a bit over 5 miles on the trails. Also Discover Pass is required unless you park in the couple of spaces outside the park.

Perfect place to take your dog for a hike

This is a great place to ride dirt bikes. The trails are a little challenging and they are multi use.

A great escape from the crowds during the Seattle Summer weekends. Plenty of options for all abilities. As with most trails, the farther you go out, the less folks around.Green Mountain Loop (8 miles) Gold Creek Trail > Vista Trail > Wildcat Trail > Beaver Pond Trail > Gold Creek TH. Offers views of Mount Rainier, Seattle, Puget Sound, Olympics.Loop is exposed in a few parts, but the route is marked well.

Beautiful place for a hike. Miles of trails, not too many people and pretty easy going

Plenty of parking with access to Green Mountain trails. There is an outhouse you can use prior to hiking, biking or riding.

Great mountain biking. Just watch out for the motos

Did this hike yesterday with a friend and our kids.. it was awesome! Some parts where a little difficult but was such a great experience will definitely do this again! The views were gorgeous!

Best hiking spot around you see a little bit of everything from all the different kinds of trees and rocks, theres also a wonderful line of miniature waterfalls and once you get to the top you can see the Olympic mountain range, great place to take someone whos from out of state

Such a great place to day hike. The distance from this trailhead to the top is about 2.3 miles give or take. Majestic views of the Bremerton valley and Seattle from the top. Picnic tables available to take a break or eat lunch. Trails allow horseback riding and motorbike riding. It is not difficult but there a tons of loose rocks along the path so be careful to avoid twisted ankles. Hiking sticks recommended.

Awesome views, decent round trip

Great place to hike, bike. Be careful on a bike. It can get a little crowded on the trail at peak hours. Ive never had a problem with anyone, they are always nice and polite.

Decent hike with good views on clear days. Lodging ruins some of the vibe and aesthetics.

You wont find a better place to hike than this place slot of wildlife easy trails to stay on well marked beautiful scenery I recommend it for beginning hikers

Short but fun trails. Watch for motorcyclist, they are usually courteous when they see hikers

Terrific views at the top! It wasnt very clear from the parking lot what direction we needed to go, and there wasnt a ton of signage either, but we eventually found our way back. Horse back riding, mountain biking, and motorbiking are allowed here

Great hiking, biking and horse riding!Please be courteous of others!On a bike? Make some noise, and THANK people for moving aside!On foot? Please step aside!Horses rule out here. But everyone can have fun!Its easier for a hiker to move on foot than for a bike or horse to.I hike and bike out here so lets all get along!Remember horses are skiddish around bikes, especially when approached from behind!

To many hikers. Get off the dirtbiking trails!

Great easy trail with great scenic views at the top. Only drawback is its also popular with bikers and horses. Dog walkers be advised.

Take water some steep parts sensible shoes but the view is awesome

Great hike with a immpresive veiw at the top.

Great Day hike! But there are lots of forks in the trail that are unmarked!

Lots of great trails but nothing too challenging. Hikes will occasionally be interrupted by motorbikes which is kind of a pain.

Awesome trail! Great length. Took us around 3 hours including breaks.

Exilerating hike! Clearly marked and beautiful vista at the top.

Great easy and moderate hiking trails. Lots of them!

It is a great hike and very peaceful up there... great place to get some fresh air and a lot of pictures...

Davis trail to the right is easy. The Gold Creek Trail is steeper. Watch out for motorcycles.

Fun experience, painful with bad forecast. Besides that, great for hiking and repelling.

Toilet and trail map. Not much shade.

Dont worry about itI walked in this so its really eaven i even made it to the top

If you can get there when it is not raining or drenched from the last rain, it is really great.

Large parking and turn around area for trailers and horses. Well maintained.

Well maintained trail to the Vista.

Awesome riding.

Possibly the best trail in Kitsap for hiking. About 3.5 miles to the summit of Green Mountain with nice views of Bremerton, Seattle, Hood Canal, Puget Sound, and the Olympic Mountains.

Quick and simple hike with a rewarding view on a nice day.

Place has really went down hill

Trail was easy to follow

Great hike and the views are amazing

Busy but always great view

Love the cave

Bathroom is clean plenty of toilet paper

You can buy a discovery pass at the shell a few miles before the trailhead.

A great place to hike

Nice conditioning hike!

Good Trailhead with lots of parking

Hiking! Walking! Running! Just do it!
