Trail Overview

This trail begins at the Glendale Bench Road, a dirt road that starts off easy, with a few sandy spots. 4WD/AWD is recommended. About 6.7 miles in, you will come to a gate that you can pass through. Be sure to close the gate behind you and stay on Country Road 112, as this trail goes through private property. Another 1.7 miles in, the road will turn very narrow and sandy, with only a couple of spots to pass. This section is only recommended with a smaller vehicle, like a side-by-side or small truck. It is very tight and curvy with trees and bushes prone to scratching. You can park and walk the 1.7 miles to see the overlook. There is a very spotty service, so be sure to save an offline map. Remember, this trail passes through a lot of private land, so please be respectful and stay on the main County Road.
