Trail Overview

Stockton Flats is a scenic and easy-to-moderate off-road trail located in the Lytle Creek area of the San Bernardino National Forest. The trail is generally 2WD-friendly, though it is rocky in some sections, so a vehicle with a bit of ground clearance is recommended for a smooth ride. The trail winds through a beautiful forested canyon and is a great choice for beginners or anyone looking for a relaxed day out in nature. Along the way, you'll pass several Yellow Post campsites, which offer dispersed camping on a first-come, first-served basis. These are perfect for a quiet overnight stay under the stars. Stockton Flats also serves as a connector to other nearby trails, including Coldwater Canyon (3N06A) - A more rugged trail with some technical sections. Slade Canyon - A lesser-traveled route for those seeking more seclusion. And 3N06B - Another offshoot trail offering scenic views and light exploration. Overall, Stockton Flats is a great starting point for exploring the Lytle Creek area, offering both accessibility and the chance to branch off into more adventurous routes.
