Manastash Ridge Trail Description
Manastash Ridge Trail is a great hike if you’re short on time but still want to get a solid workout in. It’s a consistent trip up with no breaks from the incline, but that being said, it’s still a moderate hike overall. This hike can get busy, so try coming early in the morning if you want a quieter trail.
Begin from the trailhead. You’ll hug the creek for a stretch, going straight through a series of connecting spur trails. Pulling away from the creek, the trail marches uphill and doesn’t stop until you’re atop the ridge. You can retrace your steps down, but a glance at the map will show lots of intersecting trails that can be used to make a longer adventure if you please.
