Covering nearly 15 miles, the Humbug-Willow Creek Trail system, accessible from many points in the city, is the most extensive bike and pedestrian trail system in the city of Folsom. Trails meander between Folsom Lake in the north and Alder Creek in the south, and between Lake Natoma in the west and Empire Ranch Road in the east. Portions of the trails meander between and alongside Humbug and Willow creeks.
A good place to park and start a walk or ride is on East Natoma Street near The Parkway Shopping Center. Here the trail travels in a southwest direction parallel to Blue Ravine Road before eventually coming to an end at Folsom Boulevard. From start to finish, cyclist and walkers enjoy the scenery, streams and natural beauty of the Humbug-Willow Creek Trail.
While the rules for four-legged visitors vary across California’s state parks, Folsom Lake State Recreation Area (SRA) offers a very pup-friendly experience.
