Climb through grassland and some woodland to 1,800-foot Big Rock Ridge, the second-highest peak in Marin County. From here you can take in stellar views of Marin’s mountains and valleys. The route is situated mostly on a well-graded singletrack trail, except for the fire road at the top, which has some steep sections. This is an exposed south-facing slope and all uphill, best traveled on cool mornings in summer or bright sunny days in winter.
The main trail is a beautiful example of professional trail design, thanks to our Trail Steward, John Aranson.
