Trail Running

This loop connects several short trails in the Kalopa State Park Forest Reserve where you'll find native Forest. Going counterclockwise from the trailhead, start along the Old Jeep Road Trail. There are three different junction points along the trail. For the longest loop, take the third junction, Ironwood Lane. After a short time, this trail meets the Gulch Rim Trail which parallels the Old Jeep Trail back to the trailhead. It also junctions with Bubble Gum Lane and Silk Oak Lane which run between the Old Jeep Trail and Gulch Rim Trail. Complete your loop by taking the Robusta Lane trail back the parking area. This area is out of the way of the main tourist areas so it's a great place for a little solitude. It is also much cooler than coastal destinations, so consider some warmer clothing. Rain gear is a must. The Park is often wet and muddy. Don't forget your mosquito repellent.
