Rivas Ridge Loop

Another HWD original

Formerly a VIP hike, this is a modification of my Goat Peak hike - same elevation gain but 1.5 miles shorter and with better views. This trail lies between Temescal Gateway Park to the west and Will Rogers State Historic Park to the east,

Hike will be about 6 miles with ~2,000 ft total ascent and is rated DIFFICULT due to terrain. See https://www.hikingwithdean.com/hike-rating-guide/ for hike rating guide.

DIRECTIONS
For free parking, park on Will Rogers SHP Rd (note the parking signs) or the residential streets outside of the park. Walk into park. We meet by 9am above the tennis court (see map), just past first pay parking lot.
