Hike Garnet Peak

Penny Pines Trailhead, 12031 Sunrise Hwy
California

Our favorite hike in the area. Relatively low effort for the beautiful views at the top. Garnet Peak is located in the Laguna Mountains area of the Descanso District and offers stunning viewpoints at 6000 elevation. If starting at the Penny Pines Trailhead and hiking through the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) the Garnet Peak offers a 1.2 mile out-and-back uphill incline as a stand alone trail off of the PCT. If parking at the Garnet Peak trailhead, the 2.2 roundtrip trail still packs quite a punch with its aggressive incline, and the views are well worth the trip. It should be noted however, that this trail is rocky, with loose gravel and potential hazards.
