About This Trail

Imported description

Climb one of the best trails to enjoy the views from the summit of Brokeoff Mountain. It's a prime spot for people with a interest in geology to go, even though it isn't in the way of San Francisco. Lassen Peak is a really great hike for the National Park and it's a good reason to go there. It is possible to take a break from hiking to view some of the best vistas of the park from the top of Brokeoff Mountain, if you have enough time.
