In the summer months, this trail is used for hiking and horseback riding. In winter, this trail is used for cross-country skiing, snowmobiling and snowshoeing. Access: The 2.8 mile trail (from Las Trampas Campground) is rocky and climbs quickly up the canyon through dense conifer forests to San Leonardo Lakes (11,400 feet). Sheer cliffs rise up from the south, creating a beautiful setting and a wonderful climax for the trip up the canyon. Attractions and Considerations: It is possible to climb the high ridge to the east and drop down to the Trampas Lakes. This is a very steep and difficult climb of about 1,000 foot elevation change in less than a mile, but at the crest of the ridge you will be treated to a great view in all directions.
