This trail starts right near the Stanislaus US Forest Service office which is right off CA Highway 120, 10 miles past Groveland, CA on your way to Yosemite National Park. This trail will wind you through groves of trees on flowy up and down singletrack. <br><br>This trail creates a large loop that will run you past The Pines Campground on your way back to the trailhead. The grade of this trail is very mellow compared to other trails in the area and is excellent for beginners.
