Long strenuous climb, but other than the cardio it's an easy climb. Absolutely beautiful views once you get high enough to see the coastline!

Hey y’all Me and my buddy Mike have decided to start building a new single track trail in this area. So far we’ve made some good progress but it could be a lot faster with a few more hands involved. If you’re interested in building a sick new line with some nice features. Hit me up at 310-210-2066

Begins paved before turning to dirt. Around mile 3 you’ll see bottom of Jedi Jumps section. Firm dirt suitable for a gravel bike
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
