The steep climb up the mountainside can make you work up a good sweat, but it’s well worth the effort. Starting right behind the Milk House Market in Warm Springs, it’s a steady upwards climb through the forest until you reach Flag Rock. Enjoy the beautiful vista from the top! From Flag Rock Overlook, you’ll be able to look over the tree tops down into Warm Springs valley and to the mountain range on the opposite side.
Keep walking along the ridge until the path turns to the left and leads you back down into the valley. Turn left when you reach Flag Rock Trail Rd, but leave the road after a few minutes and turn right onto a forest trail again. It will lead you down the hillside towards Old Dairy Road and back to the trailhead.
