Strenuous climb up Las Minitas is rewarded with amazing views. Nonato is a new trail that cuts along a steep hillside. Punta Gorda is a stunning out-and-back with amazing views. Punta Gorda is also a popular hiking trail so be prepared to share the trail and watch out for hikers on blind corners.

Start up Calle Cascabel to the top of Pista Pista. Follow signs to Las Minitas, which takes you to the top of the ridge. Drop down the back side of Las Minitas, and stay left at forks to Nonato.

Continue taking left forks to Las Palmas. Las Palmas has some sandy sections to grind through and you'll see a trail sign for Punta Gorda. Arroyo crossing is a bit sandy and loose but you'll soon be on the Punta Gorda out-and-back.

Stay left at the trail split for the descent (other trail is better for climbing return). Several fun rock rollovers that are all clean rollovers. Continue along the trail for stunning views. The trail ends at a beautiful beach.

Return on Punta Gorda and take John's Java to Slim Jim to return to the trailhead.
