Description

Switchback/Trail #725 runs for 3 miles between the Jewel Basin Road and the Mount Aeneas Trail #717, right on the edge of the Jewel Basin Hiking Area. It's called "Switchback" because of the 42 switchbacks in its short 3 mile length. This is a beautiful trail deep in the majestic pines... enjoy!
