Route Description for Sunset Ridge Saddle Loop Hike
Featuring a good uphill climb and some lovely views of the surrounding mountains and canyon terrain, the Sunset Ridge Saddle Loop Hike is a great option if you are looking for a challenging trail to beat in the Altadena area.
Setting out from the trailhead, you will follow the winding Mount Lowe Motorway as it climbs uphill to the northeast. Eventually, you will break off to the left onto the Sunset Ridge Trail and follow it back to the southwest through Millard Canyon.
As you traverse the rugged terrain of the canyon, take some time to appreciate its natural beauty, before arriving at a viewpoint for the Millard Falls. From here, you will soon meet back up with the Mount Lowe Motorway and follow it back into the trailhead where you started.
