Description

From the main parking lot, take Castle Rock Trail to the left. It is pretty easy to follow at the beginning. You'll get to a big climbing spot that is pretty recognizable, and if you go around that, the trail continues. Some parts of the trail are a bit small, but pretty easy to find. This trail eventually leads up to Saratoga Gap Trail.
