Description

From the Estero Trail, continue south straight out along the shoreline. This section does not see as much traffic so the trail occasionally fades in and out but is overall easy to follow. Conditions go from smooth to rutted and back again as the trail makes its way out towards the beach.

Near the end is a reservoir off to the right that will be filled or empty depending on the season. Upon reaching the beach you'll encounter a sand bar with some nice logs to sit and take in the views before turning around and heading back.
