About This Trail

Imported description

The beginning Breakneck Ridge portion has been re-routed due to fire damage. The beginning and end of the loop have the same path. If you're tired of the traffic on the southern section of Breakneck Ridge Trail, you can try this loop, which will have less traffic once you're past the Breakneck Bypass Trail. There's great views from Sugarloaf, in addition to the "usual" stupendous views.
