Trail Overview

RH 26 is a shelfy trail, mostly one lane wide, along a hillside, that begins with some embedded rock right away. Throughout the 1.6 miles, it has uneven dirt and rock layers forming 6-inch ledges that are mostly ramped and manageable. The trail includes roots, loose rock, and deeper ruts, along with a steep climb up over the embedded rock layers. After the initial climb from the north end, it descends steeply through tight switchbacks to the intersection with RH 41, continuing its descent to connect with RH 34.
