Trail Overview

The Main Divide is composed of 3 sections, all of which are very easy going trails that can be done with any high clearance 4x4 and can also be done in any low clearance AWD vehicle with care. This trail offers some of the most amazing views of the valley below and city beyond. Pack some lunch and hit the trails before sunset to catch one of the best views you'll ever see. The road to Santiago Peak within the radio tower should not be attempted in a low clearance vehicle due to the deep ruts and rocky surfaces that can do damage to cars.

Difficulty

95% of the trail is on dirt with some loose rock. 5% of the trail, within the radio tower, has larger rocks and deeper ruts that should only be attempted with a high clearance 4x4.
