Lovely walk. You can take a few different routes to the top. The views are great from every path. Nice photo op at the end with the cross. Great for a family hiking day out.

A great little park with about a mile paved walkway to the peak. There is a loop trail near the peak and a few interesting structures such as a large cross and a historic rock tower and bridge. The views on a clear non-smoggy day are great and the peak offers 360 degree views.

Amazing place, close to everything. Amazing panoramic views. Really nice

Love coming here for the beautiful views. Easy hike. There are a few different routes you can take. Depending on the time you go it tends to get packed.

Always clean and pet friendly. Has basketball courts, baseball field and a great play area for toddlers and another for older kids and a huge track with mile markers around the whole park. Huge open field and also has a neighborhood garden. Lots of parking with access to Mount Rubidoux and Santa Ana riverbed.

Great hike. You can do a steep route or an alternate thats not as steep. Try both ways, go up one and down another.

I love coming up here in the early mornings. Everyones so nice and saying good morning and wishing you a great day. That along with the views of Riverside and Rubidoux, it makes for a great start of your day. Plus early mornings means no congestion and tons of parking!!

This hike is wonderful for everyone and anyone! Parking is available, but depending on the time and day it can get full (especially around sunset). It is safe and clean, lots of families and people of all ages walking, running and jogging around. At the top there is plenty of seating so you can even bring lunch and eat it up there. There are a few (but not many) benches you can rest at if need be.

The hike is a paved road. Theres two routes you can take. A longer and more leveled trail and a shorter steeper way. Good to get out and get sweaty. Dog friendly hike.

Awesome hiking trail for the family or die hard runners. Beautiful views along the way for pit stops. Bring water for you and your dogs if bringing the furry family member.

Its an amazing park to walk through during the morning and afternoons anytime between 5am - 5pm, if your looking to only find active walkers probably by them selfs or with a couple people (especially wearing mask), depending on the hour there might only be 10 people there great for a run.If you go late afternoon to the night 5pm - 5am then its up for grabs; youll get people blocking the path, huge groups, kids vandalizing areas with spray paint or loitering, people getting high or drunk, not much respect for others who are just looking for some cardio, in that case I recommend the trail in Loma Linda as an alternative!It has an amazing view at night, more than when the sun is up. Alternative trails to climb the mountain are present, just wear slip resistant boots or shoes with good traction. The whole thing is a little under 3 miles if walked the normal route. walking it during 1pm-3pm in the summer is perfect for tans, some rats do walk around at night so be aware. Dog friendly just remember the doggy bags and leash, also expect many dogs if your dog is aggresive.Above all it is a safe location to hike for women or men going solo, havent heard of any foul play incidents. Just always stay alert either way and be prepared with water/food, a cell phone & telling someone your location(:

Great place to hike with several trails ranging from moderate to difficult. You can also bike up the mountain if you have a properly equipped bicycle. there is free parking at the ball park across the street. Bring plenty of water.

This is a nice way to spend an hour or two and get a pretty good work out in. Park your car at the park down the hill and climb to the top for a great view

We took our whole family (and puppy) on a hike. It was about 3.5 miles for the round trip. Everyone had fun. There are plenty of places to sit, stop and rest along the way for the little ones.The scenes are breathtaking. Everyone jogging, running, walking and biking are respectful of each other.

Great place to go. Nice views of the city of Riverside. There is a steep section of road that takes you up in about 1 mile or you can take the less steep one that takes about 2 miles to go up.I do recommend that you dont take the whole road as it is also used for cyclist. Stay to your right side.Too many dog owners also dont pick up after the dog, please do it to keep the park clean and enjoyable for everyone.No bathrooms, so you will have to go at Ryan Bonaminio park which is very close by. There is a water fountain at the bottom of park close to the entrance.

We found this hike while on the way to another park. It was just too tempting for us to not meet the challenge. We saw lots of other people on the trail to the top as well.It was a good hike and well worth it when we reached the top!We parked down by the dog park, but be aware parking is limited. Their are several ways to the top, some far more strenuous than others. Be aware there are some trails that do take you back down to the bottom of the hike in different locations, so make sure you are taking the trails to the top and not down. Unfortunately, there are not many signs on the way up.I look forward to doing this again!!!

Parking here is great! Plenty of it so dont worry about it. The best hiking trail in Riverside! So much to see and admire. Different routes and people are very friendly! Enjoy this place!

Very good Hiking place!! You really work those legs here! And you get an amazing view while your doing it. You can also connect to nature... Love it here..

Awesome place for hiking!It takes about 20-30 minutes to climb up to the top.It took me 20 minutes to run down the hill.It’s pretty easy hiking spot. It is my second time here and not the last one for sure.There’s a lot of people with small kids and strollers.Nature is gorgeous here!

Such an amazing place to go up, there is a beautiful view to go in the night and the climb is so fun! Be careful as you can slip and there are rabbits that lurk around

The trail was easy, but had beautiful views of the city. All of the stops along the way for photos were easily accessible, and the trail was mostly paved. The trail had an incline almost the whole way, so it may require a stop or two (at least I did) if youre not prepared. Regardless, it was a lovely trail with a beautiful tower and bridge at the top, and lovely views of the city and surrounding areas.

I used to love running up this mountain... but some people use this as a restroom. And some people do not pick up there dogs poop.

Great trail. Amazing views.

City view breathtaking, walk up the mile path before sunset and enjoy the view, you will not be disappointed

Great fun, great people, good workout! What a nice view of the site and sounds of Riverside from way up in the sky.

A great place to get out and be active. Great views. Multiple trails to choose from with varied levels of incline. Really cool towers and a giant cross at the top. Use the restroom prior to going up!

Very nice place to hike. The trail is paved so its pretty accommodating for people bringing kids and strollers. The view while going up the trail is very pretty and you truly get to see how beautiful the city is.

Hidden gem of Riverside. Great views, good hike. The weather was great yesterday, it wasnt crowded. You have quite the view on trek

This is an awesome park and mountain to visit. A place to go to clear your head and walk the trails and take in the views of Riverside and jurupa valley. Jog, run, ride your bike, its all very fun.

I felt comfortable and safe with all the people who were there.

Wish people wouldnt litter so much but its a beautiful hike anyways.

Great place to hike! It is paved and pets are allowed on leash. It offers 2 different routes, the left trail is steep and 1 mile long, the right trail has a slight incline and is 2 miles long and has more scenic views. It is also great for children and strollers.

The views are awesome. When its hot and if youre trying to avoid the crowds dont go during early evenings its packed.

Great place for a quick run, jog or walk just to get out. Its better early in the morning because if you wait and go later youll find yourself competing with literally hundreds of people and pets since this place is very popular. Also parking is a nightmare cause of the crowds. It is beautiful, very clean and safe. The bathrooms at the bottom of the hill in the park are well maintained and very clean.

The hike up to the summit is the right amount of hard. Its not difficult, but its not easy either. Its worth the effort once you reach the top.

What a beautiful place to hike. There are many paths to take depending on how much you want to walk. While there is a gradual climb going up there mountain, it isnt very difficult. There were many families with smaller kids walking and even older people. Therefore, is a great walk regardless of age.

Nice easy trail, paved basically all the way up. Whether you have a wheelchair, stroller, walker, small kids, dogs, or want to have a semi challenging run, or a nice walk this trail has it all for everyone

Love to sit at the top and look out and beautiful Riverside.

Wonderful hiking trail even if you feel like youre not in the best shape in the world. Theres a water thing at the bottom but not the top just a warning

We made it to the top. And my sons loved it, and want to do it again. The few was great, in special the clouds. Not so much the buildings, the historic once where blocked by ugly new buildings. I have seen more amazing sides then those. But still a great Challenge to your fitness and a great few.

If your going on any regular day its a great workout. A few paved roads with various difficulties for different athletic levels. The cross and flag are great for pics. If you want to avoid crowds during the pandemic...lol not gonna happen.

I have been trying to get to the top finally did. Loved it

The go to place around town to get some fresh air and a great view of the greater downtown Riv area

Beautiful and Relaxing Specially Early Morning Sunrise are the Best

Good place to get your daily week out well recommended

Wonderful place to go visit in Riverside, CA., with a lot of amazing views, lots of families go hike over there to exercise.

I really appreciate the beauty of nature. It was peaceful and nice.

Good nice walk to the top in paved road. No bathrooms so plan ahead. There is no parking lot so it was easy to miss the entrance. Overall, nice short hike and rewarding view at end

Decent hike, wear appropriate shoes. Allow yourself over an hour for this hike if youre not in the greatest shape. Great views of riverside, this is a nice addition after seeing the mission inn. This is totally worth doing if youre in the area and want to burn off some brunch calories!

A Great Hill to climb not for the weak goal is to make it to the top we will do it.

Clea area safe area and nice people

First time visiting this place and I like it , good walk with family, definitely will go back.

Great place to hike, not hard at all to climb if youre in average to good shape. Best way to get a workout is to run it up and down a couple of times.

Wonderful park have a nice trail with a lot of beautiful views interesting plaace to visit highly recommended.

Its amazing like it changes your whole mood reaching the top for the first time

Scenic panoramic view of Riverside...from a birdseye view

This is SUCH a great hike. Its a steady incline, but doable. The paths are pretty much paved the whole way and the views are spectacular. Theres a beautiful cross at the top and a cool amphitheater. I loved the castle looking bridge too that you see on one side of the path. A friend and I, both slightly out of shape, did the loop in less than an hour and a half with picture stops, could probably be done in 45 minutes. Theres free parking in neighborhoods near trail entrances. A must do when in Riverside!

I love walking the Trail to the Top of Rubidoux mountain, its so peaceful

Fun and free! It was a great way to spend time with my family! Took a backpack with waters and took the different trails. My 8 yr old had no issues going up and down the rocks and stairs.

This is hands down my favorite place to hike, day or night. I love this place soooo much. So peaceful. And sooo many dogs Its not a tough hike, and theres 3 different paths, if youre a dog lover and like to hike, this is the place to go, youll always see people bring their dogs here.

Nice easy hike in the City of Riverside. Lots of people even on a Monday morning. The trail is paved the entire way and well maintained. The place has an amazing history as well so read up on it !

Perfect for families with strollers! You can make it high or medium impact. Great paved hiking trails!! Plenty of parking at nearby park.

Its a great mountain to excercise with family or by yourself. You can also take great pictures of Riverside county!

Its a consistent incline. It doesnt get any harder as you make your way to the top; just steady. It can become a bit warm on some days because the is absolutely no shade. That doesnt stop me from going back.

Over all great park with good facilities. Restrooms are okay for being public park restrooms. They have a long path for walking and running with mile markers. The playgrounds are great with good up keep. Tons of parking a good baseball games are a plus. Also they have Mount Rubidoux just up the block.

Awesome-sauce my dogs had a great time

Mountain Rubidoux is great hike for beginners. Its a little over three miles if you park at Mount Rubidoux Park. The entire hike is paved making it very accessible, but be forewarned because of its accessibility its an extremely popular hike.

Great place to work out, go with your family, lose baby weight while strolling with them, walk your dog (if theyre friendly) and so on. Theres usually a lot of people on the trail. Theres 2 different paths you can take: one way is more steep but only about a mile, the other way is less steep and is about 2 miles long. You can meet the other path while walking on the other, so if you regret which way you took you can easily take another way. Its all paved and there are benches along the way in case you need a break. The top has a flag and a cross where people like taking pictures. The views are great and on some days the Riverside airport has smaller planes flying around which make it a little more fun

This park stays clean and there is no issue for social distancing. The hike is also not too bad for someone like me that exercise once in a blue moon. Its less than 3 miles hike both ways.

Nice easy hike with excellent views of the Inland Empire.

The walk is ridiculous but the view is worth every bit of that uphill climb! And the bathrooms are SUPER clean!!!

Love the trail it self , during the weekend to many people. Try to go really early best advice.

First time there loved how clean the trail was

Nice hike up. Good for all levels. Its paved so its easy on your feet. Gives you a good workout no matter what fitness level. Theres not much shade unless the slope shields you from the sun. This hike is best when its not too hot and sunny.

Lovely hike. Easy to make it to the top and accessible for disabled visitors. Would do it again :)

Nice spot to go to, there were two trails paved and non. We took the non for a more scenic route

Nice easy trail with good scenery.

Mount Rubidoux Park offers some of the most stunning scenes of the city of Riverside as well as nearby San Bernardino and Rubidoux. Overall, it is best to travel up.the mountain around 4:00pm during the winter and 6:30 during the summer for the best golden hour photos possible. Another tip is to go around April-June where the sun aligns in a perfect position. Overall the trek up to the market is steep so beware when using a stroller or anything with wheels, especially when going downhill. It is important to note there is no water fountain or restroom up at the summit of the Mountain. If you need to go then do it at the park across the street and also there is a water fountain also compatible for pets at the base. Overall, Mount Rubiduox is an amazing place to go for.a challenging hike, spending at most 1:30.to hike uphill then downhill. Not to mention the overall landmark on top of the cross, 5 stars for this Mountain.

Its always great place to walk!

It’s a good place for hiking and leisure. The trail is easy to hike and suitable for any ages.

Great, loved the hike don really come and peaceful

If you are new in Riverside, this is a must see place you have to visit. It has many wonderful scenes from the top. You will like it. It also good for hiking if you want to loose some weight

Beautiful mountain, Beautiful Views

Its a great hike with awesome views.

To see this as I am doing something I never did was comforting. God is with ALL of us.

Fresh air. A great view. Relaxing place to take your family and its free.

Great city view at night

Great hike. clean areas. minimal graffiti.this park has clean working bathrooms.

First time coming here and loved the hike up with the panoramic views in every direction. It was a great workout too!

Great place to hike. Plenty of trails. And maintaining trails and cleaning the park good job.

It was my first hiking experience and I decided to give mount rubidoux a try. It was honestly so much fun! Obviously if you’re not used to it, walking up a inclined road up a mountain is indeed very tiring at first. Once you get to the top, it’s worth every bit of sweat and I mean it! The view is breath taking honestly! There’s a giant cross at the very top of the mountain as well as a nice tower and a very big American flag. Many many people hike here daily and even kids and dogs come up here too! If you’re looking to de-stress or just do something more active, you should definitely give mount rubidoux a try!

The nutcracker ballet was good. Its a pretty decent size theater but small enough for everyone to see the stage. After the performance you are able to take picture with the actors. The tickets were 56 .00 not to bad at all

I just love this placeEveryone should visit .

Although I didnt see a bathroom nearby, the paved path to top was easy but difficult enough. The path has interesting structures and great views to the top to distract you, and seeing the top is a satisfying goal.

Beautiful place to go with the family and have some family fun time

Great hike. First time doing it living in Riverside for 30 years. Seen all kinds of different type of people making this hike.

My peace is found every time i make it to the top....

Get a great work out here and the view is amazing

Good uphill hike, great views!

Great place to get some exercise. Saw lots of people doing the same so I know I ain’t the only on. Great view of Riverside, California from up there. When you get to the top there is a nice breeze. People in the area are pretty friendly and it’s really clean.
