The trail is well marked and follows a network of ranch roads leading through a habitat restoration area and into the backcountry. The Arroyo Quemado Trail begins at Calle Real and ends at Camino Cielo - spanning six miles or 12 miles out and back. The Loop Trail is available for a shorter 6.5 miles out and back hike.
Just beyond the one-mile mark the road transitions into the riparian zone and continues to parallel the creek, it's here that the trail starts to take on a more wilderness feel.
The designated trail is open to the public seven days a week for all trail users. It is important to stay on the trail. Public access is prohibited in other areas of the Ranch. Hidden cameras monitor activities. DOGS ARE NOT ALLOWED.
