Ferrin's Trail was built to provide a mellower climb to the top of Snow King for mountain bikes. It originally started at the Sink or Swim and Upper Hagen Trail junction but the 2 trails were combined under the recent USFS trail assessment and renamed Ferrin's Trail. It now begins a few hundred feet up the Hagen Highway from the Cache Creek Trailhead and climbs at an average 9% grade to the Ferrin's Saddle at the Skyline Trail junction.

Access Info

This trail can be accessed from the Cache Creek Trailhead.

        Great loop, plenty of fun and flowy descents. Climbing can be long (approx 30 minutes or less) but worth it.
