Hiking the Graveyard Truck Trail is a pleasant experience in Southern California that features easy-going terrain and views of the nearby mountains. While out on the trail, you will traverse the mildly-undulating landscape outside of Tujunga, but make sure to exercise caution, as the trail is fairly exposed to the sun. There isn’t much room for vehicles to park at the trailhead, so make sure to arrive early so that you can secure one of the limited spaces.

Route Description for Graveyard Truck Trail

Searching for a laidback trail within the boundary of the Angeles National Forest that the entire family will enjoy? Then you will definitely want to check out the Graveyard Truck Trail. Be sure to display your adventure pass in your vehicle and bring sun protection, as the trail features little shade.

Setting out from the trailhead on Alpine Way, you will initially head north for a short distance to reach a junction in the trail, before turning right. Here, you will make your way to the southeast across the undulating landscape, while taking in the views of nearby mountains.

After reaching the endpoint of the route, simply turn back and retrace your steps along the trail to return to your vehicle.
