Miller Canyon Trail Description
If you are after a longer hiking route and don’t mind sharing the road with a few daring off-road vehicle enthusiasts and mountain bikers, then the Miller Canyon Trail in the San Bernardino National Forest will be a fantastic route for you to explore.
Setting out from the trailhead, you will follow along the road as it initially heads to the southwest, before turning east through Miller Canyon. Here, you will steadily gain elevation along the dirt road while enjoying the views of the forested slopes surrounding you.
Eventually, the road will turn to the north and begin climbing more sharply along the hillside to bring you out of the canyon and onto some elevated ground. At this point, you will continue along the road as it turns southeast towards the endpoint of the route near the Lake Arrowhead Country Club. From here, simply turn back along the road and follow it back down into the canyon on the return leg into the starting point of your adventure.
