Description
From here, Figueroa Trail starts by following McKean Road on the left (east), which then gives way to a local road and a few farm houses to the left. To the right (west), a grass and wooded hill rises above the trail. The trail is wide and fairly open here. About 0.8 miles from the end of Access Trail, Figueroa Trail veers right (west), leaves "civilization" behind, and heads up a wooded creek valley between two hills. This creek is Calero Creek, a seasonal creek that flows into Calero Reservoir.
After another 0.6 miles (1.4 miles from the end of Access Trail), Figueroa Trail passes two trails junctions; Canada Del Oro Trail is passed first on the left, followed by Vallecito Trail on the right. Figueroa Trail then begins to climb gradually. As it climbs, it emerges from the woods to go through grass hills with stands of trees, mostly oak trees.
Figueroa Trail then ends at a trail junction with Pena Trail and Serpentine Loop Trail.
