Garnet Peak Trail
Mount Laguna, CA
Free parking at Penny Pines
By Simir Shah
A short (2.2 miles round trip from the Garnet trailhead) but steep, rocky climb to sweeping views over the desert. The Forest Service warns of loose gravel near the top, so it's moderate and best for confident kids about 8 and up with good shoes. Penny Pines parking is now free.
