Trail Description

The Steinke Basin trail system consists of wide gravel/grass trails that serve as cross-country ski route during winter. Level and easy, paths cross meadows and woodlands, with occasional small stream crossings along the way. Steinke Basin holds a number of small bouldering areas which require some route-finding to locate, but are fun diversions from the hordes during the busy season.

A small creek with clear water flowing over rocks, surrounded by dense green foliage and tall grasses. A wooden bridge crosses above the creek amid trees and sunlight filtering through the leaves.
