Route Description for San Jacinto River South Fork Hike

Whether you are looking for a moderately difficult hike in the mountains to clear your head or want to take the family out for a challenging adventure, the San Jacinto River South Fork Hike is a fun excursion that features mountain views and a peaceful riverside landscape.

Setting out from the trailhead, you will make your way gradually uphill to the southeast through the scrub covered hills, before the trail eventually flattens out. Here, you will enjoy some wonderful views of the surrounding mountain landscape.
