About Granite VIew Loop
This trail is on private property, owned by the RTF ( Rubicon Trail Foundation ) and open to the public at the discretion of the RTF. While Granite View Loop is typically open from June through November, the best way to plan for this trail is to contact the Rubicon Trail Foundation for current status.
This trail connects from the bottom of Indian trail / the Slabs on the Rubicon, travels into the RTF property and makes a loop around the large granite hill sitting above Rubicon Springs.
There are great technical sections of rock crawling through here. Granite View Loop is the answer to those that want more of the Rubicon!
