About the trail

Saxon Mountain is no joke. At sections a very narrow trail with fallen boulders and rocks. Steep switchbacks and cliffs with no margins for error. Spectacular views from the top.

Reminiscent of the classic Black Bear Pass. It will definitely get your blood pumping.

It is combined with Cascade Creek. We come up Cascade Creek and go down Saxon Mountain. It is a full day tour.

Booking an individual trail is not possible due to weather conditions, driver experience level, etc.

Please book a tour and we will consult with you on the best trails for your reservation date!
