Description

Little Round Top is a relatively lightly traveled motocross trail. There are some steeper sections, including a few hike-a-bikes in the first mile while climbing up to 9,000’ elevation. After that, it mostly levels off through alpine glades and meadows.

This trail circles around Little Round Top peak from the south side around to the west-northwest side and runs into the hiking-only PCT approximately three miles from the Strawberry 4WD Trail. If you reach a "T" junction and post that reads "Echo" on one side and "Shower's Lake" on another, you've made it to the end and should turn around.
