Hike – Ipiwa Trail, Alpine Lake Loop, Sunny Jim Trail, and Horseshoe Lake

Meet at the HPQ carpool site* at 9:30 am.

If going directly to the hike site, meet at Skyline Ridge at 10:00 am. 

  • Take Page Mill Road to Skyline, turn left for 0.7 miles. The Skyline Ridge parking lot is on the right.  The address is 22000 Skyline Blvd, Los Gatos, CA 95033.

The Ipiwa trail is a lovely single track trail with expansive views over the Santa Cruz Mountains, about half shade and half exposed. There is a little information center at Alpine Lake with picnic tables for our lunch. Sunny Jim Trail is a service road.

This is the first time that we have hiked the Ipiwa Trail, Alpine Lake Loop, Sunny Jim Trail, and Horseshoe Lake.  It is about 4.0 miles and 770 ft. climbing.

If we feel energetic there is a possible extension to Borel Hill with great views over the bay area. It would add an additional 2.1 miles, 310 ft.
