Description

Sometimes referred to as Prison Camp, the Molino Basin Trail starts at the parking area above the Molino Basin campground. After a short climb, riders begin a fun, rocky descent through the valley, complete with fast romps over rock and tight 180 switchbacks.

While there are a few short climbs, the trail is almost entirely a dance with gravity. The trail can be ridden on its own for a short burst of fun, or can be linked with Bug Springs above and La Milagrosa below.
