This route is out in the sun, so we recommend leaving it for shoulder season or winter and coming prepared with lots of water, a hat, and sunscreen if you plan to visit on a hot day. If you’re new to the area, bring a GPS route to help with the occasional unsigned junction you’ll encounter.
From the trailhead next to the road, take Twisted Sister Trail, keeping left twice and then again at the next 4-way junction onto Wild Horse Trail. Stay right at the next two junctions and continue straight through to the trail’s end at N Usery Road. From here, turn back and retrace your steps to the trailhead.
