Lover's Leap Trail #17E12

Dogs Leashed

Features Views · Wildflowers

This trail starts at a parking area off Highway 50. This is a rather hidden trail with lots of trees, though there are breaks in the tree cover which provide awesome views of the American River Canyon north to Horsetail Falls, and east toward Echo Summit and west toward Placerville. The view from the rocky top of Lover's Leap is well worth the climb and the time. The trail continues south and west of Lover's Leap, ending at a forest road.
