From Willamette when you reach Willamette and Donald follow Donald out to Fox Hollow then take a right onto Fox Hollow, after a little bit there will be a gravel parking lot on the left with three posts in front of the trail. GOOD JOB

Once you get there, there will be a hiking trail that goes up and one that is dirt, stay on the dirt

I love it! You can ride right from home and be there in minutes. I ride it all the time! It's not the best, but it's the best in town, and it's been improved! Now starting near the end of West Amazon St., about 1 block to bridge and trail head, ride up The Amazon Headwaters Trail. The one mile climb has several bridges across the creek bed and puts you right at the Fox Hollow Rd entrance to The Ridgeline Trail. As suggested in previous reviews continue from Ridgeline to Baldy Mountain (North on Dillard Rd approx 1/2 mile), and beyond! There are numerous trails and variations. Ridgeline itself is a great beginners trail 1 mile and back. The overall system can provide challenges for the best of riders. Please! Watch out for hikers, dogs, runners, and other cyclists, and be Nice! Share the trail.

A nice, short little trail chock full of hikers. It's only on this list because there's really nothing else in the Eugene area. Nothing to shout about

This is a great weekday afternoon ride. Bike up Fox Hollow from anywhere in town, ride the trail, and if you're still wanting a bit more, pick up the rest of the trail across Dillard (starts slightly to the north) and drop down onto Spring Blvd.

A fun little trail, lots of ups and downs. Good newbie trail (my first real trail!). Great for a one hour workout, that is, unless you did what I did, and biked all the way up to the trailhead from Eugene.
