You can start the Hornbeck and Lower Sacramento Ditch Trails at either Walker Mine Road or Quartz Hill Road. The upper Hornbeck Trail, which is 4 miles one way, has a great lookout point, named Freitas Overlook, facing Keswick lake. The Lower Sacramento Ditch Trail is a little shorter at 2.8 miles one way, but offers lots of switch backs and turns for the more advanced rider.
