GUIDED HIKE: Grasslands Trail

Join us for a guided hike along the Grasslands Trail! The Castle Mountains Grasslands Trail traverses a dense Joshua tree forest, boasts spectacular views of the surrounding landscape, and intersects the historic Barnwell and Searchlight Railroad line. The trail is actually a little-traveled, narrow backcountry road, and is easy walking with an elevation difference of only around 300 feet. This trail is 5 miles round trip.

We’ll be meeting at the parking lot of Terrible’s in Searchlight at 9AM (100 US-95) and then caravan-ing over to the trailhead parking area. Bring plenty of water and snacks, sturdy shoes, sunscreen and a hat, and plan for about 2 to 2.5 hours once we leave town. Dogs are welcome but must remain on-leash.

Please RSVP as space is limited and we want to be able to send last minute details or changes to those who are planning to attend.
