Itinerary description
Most inner trails. Start in the Coyote trail until the 4 way junction past the farms and take the High Meadow trail. In it's end, a stop in the High Meadow Vista Point is worth it.
Take the Wildcat Loop trail and turn left when you reach the Rogue Valley trail. This is the boring part (at least for me, not much to see, but good to recover breath). Take the Upper Rogue Valley trail to the left in the first junction (impossible to miss).
This is the toughest climb, but it is still pretty chill. In the top, turn right over the Upper High Meadow trail. It'll be boring again for a few minutes (good view though) but you'll find the Upper Wildcat Canyon trail on the left soon. From here it is essentially downhill until the Coyote trail where you started, hugging the Ohone Creek until there.
About midway through this section you could turn left over the Wildcat Loop trail and reach the High Meadow Vista point for another peak before leaving if you want another climb.
Pretty manageable sub 10 miles hike for the weekend.
