Overview
This trail is suggested as a one-way trek either by using two cars (one at each end), or as a drop-off and pick-up at the end. <br><br>Start this trail by joining the paved road heading west. The road turns from paved to dirt in about three miles, just after passing Sulphur Mountain. The trail offers beautiful panoramic views of Ojai Valley and the surrounding mountain ranges, and in the springtime is a wonderful place to enjoy wildflowers. Though this is a long trail (12.8 miles), the majority of it is a gentle downhill from east to west (as mapped), making for a nice day hike.<br><br>Keep in mind that much of this trail passes along private property, so be sure to stay on the trail.<br><br>Thanks to John McKinney, The Trailmaster, for sharing this trail description.
