Pacific Crest Trail from Highway 49 to Loves Falls bridge

Only the stated source distance is supported; mapped proximity is not a walking distance.

Shaded maintained trail, not wheelchair accessible.

Where to start

Sierra Rec reports using the PCT pull-off across Highway 49. That account also reports the river bridge closed, so it does not establish current authorized bridge access. An alternate Wild Plum start has documented parking but its current route also requires confirmation.

Timing & water

Tourism describes year-round access but substantial winter snow.
