Trail Overview
A 14-mile trail along a ridgeline that dead-ends on private property. Spectacular views span from the sea to the valley. Many Big Sur hiking trails end on this road. There are numerous side trails leading illegally into Fort Hunter Liggett. Do not take them! The fort is a testing ground for both tanks and artillery.
Difficulty
Mostly easy but one stretch in the middle of the trail requires high clearance and 4WD.
