Description

This paved multi-use path connects the North Village to Horseshoe Lake and passes many popular Mammoth Lakes trails, such as Juniper and Panorama Dome. The descent from Horseshoe Lake to the North Village is 1,000 vertical feet; downhill users can accelerate quickly and must control their speed. The path is always used by walkers, joggers, and families as well.
