This is a moderate hiking trail with elevation beginning at 5,720 feet with a 700-foot elevation gain.
Starting at Tahquitz View Drive in Idyllwild, the trail ascends for 2.6 miles crossing seasonal trails mostly shaded by beautiful trees of different species, a botanist’s delight! Along the way there are scenic views of the surrounding mountain peaks. This trail is friendly to dogs on a leash. Bring 2 liters of water, a sun hat, sunscreen and wear close-toed shoes
