Cahuilla Mountain Trail

Route Description for Cahuilla Mountain Trail

While there are certainly more scenic hiking routes within the boundary of the San Bernardino National Forest, the Cahuilla Mountain Trail still offers some nice views of the surrounding California landscape and a great sense of being enveloped by nature.

Setting out from the roadside trailhead, you will make your way to the south and into the cover of the forest. Here, you will almost immediately begin climbing up the mountainside, as you follow the trail across the undulating landscape.

As you continue along the trail, make sure to pause and appreciate any views that come your way, as the tall foliage at the summit of Cahuilla Mountain doesn’t reveal much in terms of scenic views. Once you have reached the summit of Cahuilla Mountain, you can pause for a quick break or a snack, before heading back down the mountainside along the same trail to return to the trailhead where you began your adventure.
