A great place to take your family for some exercise and fresh air. I usually ride my ebike on this…read morepath/trailhead beginning on Yucca Loma bridge near Spring Valley Lake. This path takes you to lower campus of VVC in one direction towards Bear Valley Road and you will be facing the new Aldi shopping center at the end of the trail. On the Victorville side expect to see more shaded areas due to the homes of SVL right next to the path. It is paved and divided path that bikes and pedestrians to enjoy. There are no restrooms or anything on this path. At the end of the path there are bike pumps/tools/air if you need it. This is where most people park entering through Fish Hatchery Road and parking unloading their bikes or beginning there walk/run. Parking is limited in this area, but if it gets busy people park in the dirt. Also note there are poop bags if you bring your furry one. Be sure to grab a couple before you start your run/walk. Nobody wants to see a pile of poop or step on it. Pick up after your pet. What most people don't know is this path continues in Apple Valley however you must go east on Bear Valley over the bridge then cross the street to the Jess Ranch shopping center. The path again begins towards the Cinemark side of the shopping center. This path takes you again along the Mojave Riverbed behind the Jess Ranch planned community. On the AV side there are benches ever so often if you need to take a breather. It would be great if they could connect it somehow with some pedestrian bridge or something over Bear Valley, but who knows if that will ever happen lol. As others have mentioned if you head back along the path towards Apple Valley and Yucca Loma bridge the path splits and one takes you under the bridge into Mojave Narrows. It is great ride into Mojave Narrows in a brisk morning. I wouldn't do a walk alone at sunset or night as Mojave Narrows and the path itself is very heavy with vegetation and who knows who is lurking in there. While biking at night I see mom's pushing their stroller on there self phone not aware of their surroundings and always makes me a little anxious thinking someone could harm them, so I always keep an eye out when I'm on the path The path ends in Mojave Narrows and makes a u-turn and leads you back in the other direction. It the morning you see lots of fisherman and families out by the water. Couple things to note: The path is long, if you bring your kids, bike, etc be prepared with water and be prepared to carry your young kid if they say they are tired. lol. Don't go biking, walking or whatever alone where you could put yourself in danger. If you go during the day or when weather is warm there are a lot of tiny bugs. They will get in your face, mouth, etc if you are biking. Where some sunglasses and a mouth covering or you will get a mouthful of them in your face. It is extremely hot in the summer during the day. So again bring water and dress for the weather.

Ugly walk. View of drainage area and people's back yards. Homeless camps and creeps along the way.read more

PROS: I love the park. Looks like it was built by boyscouts a long time ago. The Mojave river…read moreruns right past it along with dual traintracks and an excellent view of Quarzsite mountain. I've seen all sorts of wildlife here, from ducks, big fish, little fish, crawfish, beavers, hawks, pelicans, huge amounts of crows, Big Owls, and theres squirrels that live at the flagpole. The rocks in the park are known to hide secret treasures from tweakers, i found all sorts of snap on bits, an expensive folding knife and a book on Spiritual Warfare. I love to take my rc trucks as a trail companion, not much action for crawlers. Sometimes I hike the powerline road that leads to the park and washes from Brentwood area. 4x4's are known to drive up the River. There's two large patches of grass and the water company constantly tests the waters so there's daily early visits from specialists. They say it's reservations only but the area has a small amount of parking for many cars. I've never seen law enforcement there. We like to go here primarly cuz not many people are there and it makes my family feel safer. The city mops the place up of grafitti. CONS: This park is now a serious hotspot for human traffickers, people breaking into trains that live in the granite rock quarry directly above the park. Unseen in the park, are shantys, rv's, the rock quarry now a giant trash pit. I was looking for the devil faces in the rocks and found a ghost town of creepy vibes. Go figure. Feb 28th I was almost sacraficed in a vampire coven in apple valley. I walked out of a trap that day only to find that camp on the other side of the mojave river. I barely made it to rockview that day and got picked up. I've gone to this park many many times. I doubt i'll go here anymore without a ccw. I will fear no evil type ahhhh either way. All the wildlife is vanishing, everything is fair game for food thanks to the village of people living near the river. Literally everything has vanished. starting with ducks, then fish, then beavers, then squirrels!!!! It wouldn't surprise me if they are eating crow. Life must be tough. BEWARE: of black magic human traffickers here. What am I talking about? Traps. People that are too friendly, a girl flirting too much, or a guy wanting to see you again to go to other spots or they ask to take pictures of your children. Be careful people, there's an evil cult that has taken over everywhere in the HD, I'm talking full on the worst things you could think of as a business. Extortion, framing, giving stds and claiming u graped, every type of human trafficking problem, selling body parts up to adrenochrome. These people use GHB laced foods/drinks, and other evil drugs to seduce you into whats known as a honey trap. I love you all, discern peoples motives, do they seem dark or like they've done this before. These families are full of smiles, but you can see the anticipation of fear in thier actions. They study your reactions, and mirror you. If you use drugs, they'll lace yours. These are interesting times we live in, God Bless you all, Godspeed. (I'm a good looking guy that open carrys a chrome plated pair of large scissors. I was almost shot in Brentwood park point black by a 357 while holding my 4 year old son. I took my kids to rockview to reconnect them to nature. I'm deeply concerned with the HD falling into evil hands. My favorite things to do in this city now are going to court and watching people in tough situations and praying for them, and praying in an open area of the desert with a 360 view while i watch the sunset.)

But, bring your own food and water as it's several miles from a grocery store etc.

I've been to the balcony and prefer Grange for it's technical turns which is perfect for underpowered cars to monsters hp cars. The owner, Jim, is very nice and delivers pizzas for $15 a pie.
