Backbone Trail: Newton Canyon Trailhead to Zuma Ridge Trail

Overview

This section of the Backbone Trail could be part of a longer, epic ride from the Kanan Road trailhead all the way to the Mishe Mokwa trailhead and back (15 miles one way). <br><br>This trail is very popular among hikers for a couple of reasons: it's easily accessible from Kanan Road and has plenty of parking and over-flow parking. It's also relatively easy when compared to other, more challenging parts of the Backbone Trail. <br><br>When you ride this section, in either direction, be aware of other trail users and use a bear bell and reduce your speed.
