This trail is a loop around the mountain, very beautiful, easy to walk. If you want to walk a little steep (not so much), taking the leftside, while on the rightside, a little easier to take up-walking. It is good for winter season, so comfortable.

Easy to get to and a fair amount of easy parking. Handy maps are posted on the start of the trail and by taking a picture you can have a map if you come unprepared.

Great hike next to Pyramid Mountain. Beautiful views. Parking for about 10 cars at Trailhead. Recommend turning right going Counterclockwise to follow scorpion trail first then merging into Pyramid trail. Watch for the markers as there are mini trails that deviate from the main trail. Difficulty level medium with some climbs and drops. Relatively flat overall. Great scenery. 2.1 miles around.

The red rock was so hot to touch when I put my hands on to climb for submitting, successful at 3rd trying. Definitely my legs were tired the next day from climbing up 3 times and descending 3 times. Hope you can figure out the way by viewing my photos. ^&^ Now I know it is naturally formed Pyramid, not man made as I thought. It's just a great gift from the Mother Nature to curious humans. ^&^ It's very peaceful at the top with great views of all around.

Skip the crowded trails for sunset and come here instead! I saw one other person on a Saturday evening sunset hike and the views were fantastic almost the entire time. I recommend doing the loop counterclockwise for a gradual start but the end will be steep downhill. I spent 1 hr 45 min but stopped many times to enjoy the views and take photos. Download Alltrails app, free account works fine, look up "Pyramid to Scorpion Trail Loop" and you can pull up the map to check while hiking so you know if you've gone off trail.

This was a very beautiful hike. I did the recommendation of going counterclockwise and joining up with the Scorpion trail to come back. I’m an average hiker and had a few difficult moments picking up the trail, but that made it all the more interesting to hike it. I’d like to go back and do it at Sunset, with a headlamp of course to come back!

Started by taking the scorpion trail, reasonably easy to start, fabulous views. Gets tougher, then joining the pyramid trail down is very steep, steep drops and a bit of a scramble at times. But definitely worth it .

Loved this hike. Beautiful views, some shade towards the backside, rugged rocky terrain. One area with a steep climb. We went clockwise so we would climb up instead of going down.
