Valley and coastal hill views on a 2-mile easy loop through Irvine Open Space Preserve, on the Quail Hill Trail. Stroller-accessible in sections.
Keep your eyes open for roadrunners. I see them almost every time that I’m here.
head straight down from the trailhead and make a left at the junction. A hike board has information on the trail and conditions.
The trail follows the upper slope of the hill, and then returns on the flat portion.
Another great family-friendly aspect of the Quail Hill hike is the regular bathrooms with running water.
There’s decent parking in the lot by the trailhead and much more parking across the street.
Look for this sign that marks the entrance into the main parking area and trailhead.

There isn’t a lot of climbing on the hike aside from an initial uphill. It’s a nice, gentle route.
