Description

The trail starts at the metal gate on Shell Road. It loosely parallels Shell Road for about a mile skirting some of the green meadows on the west side of the road. Cross the road and start heading uphill toward the flat mountain right in front of you.

The ascent is initially moderate but then turns into very steep boulder climbing at 1.4 miles. Just continue uphill until you reach the flat surface. Table Mountain provides stunning views of New Melones Lake and the wildflower covered top invites you to just stroll and explore.
