Trail Overview
This short trail gradually climbs above the town of Gunlock through a series of switchbacks until you reach a plateau with sweeping views in all directions. Beautiful rock formations come into view as you proceed North West towards the dam. The mostly gravel two-track trail is nicely graded with only a few rough patches along the entire route. This trail ends at Lower Sand Cove Dam and is the perfect spot to cast a line and even take a swim!
