View at the top is not as great as the ridge just before the peak. Mostly shaded. Consistent climb. Easy and short enough to climb more than once at a go (if you're into that sorta thing). Five oaks trail is definitely more scenic.

You gotta work a little bit, but the hike isn't bad at all for the views that you get. Beautiful views at the summit. I'd recommend not doing it during the summer as it gets pretty hot out there.

A great hike with amazing scenery and views. Started at 6:30 am. A little cloudy but not too bad. Perfect hiking conditions. About 55 degrees. Started up dirt road and a little ways in cut over to the 5 oaks trail. I recommend going this way. Trail is narrower through here but not bad. You climb through a mostly shaded area. Oaks all around you. Views of San Diego area. As you meet back up with main trail to the top it turns from trees to grass fields. Trail is much easier at this point. Not much climbing from here. Closer to the top you turn to the summit and on the east side is the desert. You can see the Salton sea and much of anza borrego desert. San Jacinto is to the north. At the summit there is a light tower and a picnic table. Behind the picnic table is a short trail to the rock on the summit. There is a marker in top of that rock. Great moderate hike.

Well maintained trail. Clean, well serviced portapotties at the base of the trail. Cool sculptures, and meditation seating at base plus nice benches for reflection at the summit, and good view points along the way. Not too crowded on a weekday morning. Lovely views.

Loved this hike! 2 different routes to enjoy, take the 5 Oaks Trail on the way up. Has a much better scenery.
