Reviews For 'White Rock / La Madre Springs Loop Trail' |

| The White Rock/La Madre Springs Loop Trail offers a moderate trek with fantastic scenery and occasional wildlife. Leaving from the Willow Springs picnic area the hike initially follows a 4X4 road and then breaks off onto the trail. It is deceiving at first, as the trail has modest upgrades, but before long, you are working a bit. As you come around toward the White Rock halfway point, you find yourself on a consistent downgrade that empties out into the White Rock parking area. From here, you proceed across the desert and over a number of ridges before returning to the La Madre Springs picnic area. This is a beautiful hike and great views of the Red Rock Canyon area. It is certainly dog friendly but I think it might be a bit much for kids. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
