Cinderella Trail is a 1.4-mile out-and-back mountain biking route in Joaquin Miller Park, a city-managed park in California. The trail rises about 400 feet from a low point of 968 feet to a high of 1,394 feet, and it is rated moderate. Late summer and early fall are the most comfortable times to ride. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Berkeley show September highs around 76°F with only about one wet day, while winter brings highs near 59°F and roughly 11 wet days a month. That station sits well below the trail, so temperatures on the climb run cooler. The Sequoia-Bayview Trail starts just 0.1 mile away, and the Chaparral Trail and Castle Park Trail are both within a third of a mile for hikers. Climbers can find Grizzly Peak Boulders about 5.5 miles off.
