Eagle Rock Hike on the PCT Guide

No caption provided.

The hike starts at this livestock gate, just south of the Cal Fire station, across the street from the parking area.

You hike up the lush Cañada Verde (green gully) and then head across the grasslands to Eagle Rock.

This one-way elevation profile is a little deceiving. The hike is generally uphill with some rolling terrain, but the distance makes all of the uphill sections seem very gradual and tame.

There are a fair number of PCT markers along the trail. You’ll be on the PCT for the whole hike.

The parking area ends at the PCT sign on the southern end of the lot. If this area is full, drive down the road in this direction for a minute and there’s another big parking area on the shoulder.

Here’s the fire station, park across the street from it.
