This is a long but pleasant hike all the way around the mountain, starting at the North Trailhead. Taking Trail 3 to Trail 4, the loop route then follows Trail 4 around the eastern side of the mountain to Trail 2, then to the East Trail Kiosk. The loop then turns westward on East Trail 3, across South Meadowlark Prairie to Trail 5 which parallels the Coast Fork Willamette River through the Arboretum, then further northward on the Coast Fork Trail back to the North Trailhead and Parking area.
Please remember that dogs must be on leash within the Arboretum.
