Runner Notes

A great for trail runners! The grade is gradual and the footing is good.

A great trail for families or pets! This flat, dirt fire trail that connects to multiple other trails on Mount Diablo. It can be accessed from the Deer Flat Fire Trail and connects to the Prospector's Gap Fire Road for those looking to make a longer run or loop in the park.

Looking south towards Ransom Point on the trail to Prospectors Gap. The route has little cover, no water, and great views.
