Trail Overview

PC 26 begins on the south end alongside Pinnacle Creek, offering a scenic river view as the trail follows the water's edge. The trail is mostly smooth with minor rock and ruts, featuring gradual, sweeping corners and good visibility. One shelf-like section climbs above the river before the trail turns away at the intersection with trail PC 24, heading into the forest. From here, the trail narrows and gradually climbs with wide switchbacks, becoming steeper as it ascends. The route passes trails PC 94 and 15 before reaching the intersection with trails PC 10 and 11 at its northern end.
