Mostly single track trail along Folsom Lake. Exploring Old Salmon Falls Bridge, rock cairns, Hancock Creek old aqueduct bridge and mine entrance - all normally under water. Wildflowers were an amazing surprise!
The trailhead starts on American River Conservancy land so you must pay $5 to park - no passes allowed. As Acorn Creek Trail passes thru ARC land, you'll be delighted with the plant identifying signage that's been ins...
Easy out and back. Lots of open areas. Not a good hike for a summer day. Ends at the river for a good lunch spot. I only recorded the hike in, so double the distance. 7 mi in and out.
Do not be scared off at the start of this hike! The trail starts somewhat rocky & steep with a bit of loose rock & pebbly granite for the first few hundred yards but quickly evens out to a nice, easy-to-follow trail. ...

The hike from Acorn Creek to Satan’s Cesspool is an easy 7 mile round trip through grass lands and oak forests. Satan’s Cesspool is an impressive rapids reached via rocks that are sculpted into graceful shapes and not th...
Folsom Lake Sweet Water Trail Run The Starting line for the race will be the middle of the parking lot due to the Sweet Water Trail being a very narrow single track trail. This will allow the pack to thin out a little...
This is another one of those great hikes so close to home! The hike is somewhat "magical" in that you are often hidden from view by the abundant plant life along the trail. Don't let the quaintness fool you ... this i...
This trail is also know as the South Fork American River Trail. Once you cross the fence into Cronan Ranch, you’ll be following the small “SFT” trailsigns. The turnoff to Satan’s Cesspool currently has signage with an a...
Due to the extremely low water level in Folsom Lake, the old Salmon Falls bridge was accessible to cross from one trail to the other. This recording also features an optional lollipop to Hancock Creek. Darrington is h...
Due to recent rains, there was one “rock hop” stream crossing and 3 or 4 “big jump” seasonal run-off crossings. Hancock Creek, at mile 4 is a great place to have a snack or lunch break. It is shady and provides cooling ...
The water level will determine whether you'll see this old historic bridge. If the water level is low enough, you will start to see the bridge thru the naked winter trees at ~mile 3.1. You'll split to the left to go down...
Singletrack trail by Folsom Lake. The beginning is rocky and challenging but it gets easier. Hot in the summer. Pay parking at trailhead or park on the shoulder prior to crossing bridget and bike to trailhead.
Trail starts at the far south end of the Salmon Falls parking area just to the right of the restroom. During wet weather, there will be seasonal creek crossings and some marshy areas. Perfect for summer hiking because ...
Short out and back with mini lollypop at the end. Lots of water crossings that are dry in summer but require some wading in spring. Dry and hot in summer, but only first mile has any technical challenges. Several sidecu...
A very nice hike for a bit of nature. Houses are never out of your view, but that didn’t ruin the beauty around us. The silence was wonderful. Since the water level was low, we were able to walk down “in the water” and ...
Hike from the Salmon Falls TH to Satan's Cesspool on the American River South Fork. My phone battery died at mile 6.6. Actual mileage was about 7.4 mi.
Easy to medium hike to a beautiful grove to have lunch. Turn around for a 5 mile hike or continue to the river for a 10 mile hike. Very fun
Vereda muy marcada, con poco desnivel, con hermosas vistas del Río South Fork American en el estado de California, cerquita de Sacramento. La vereda está excelente para trotar o hacerla en bici. Es una vereda sencilla, s...
Una vereda muy plana, excelente para trotar y disfrutar del recorrido. Me tocó clima lluvioso, lo que le agregó un toque muy especial.
Out and back with small loop
