            Difficulty: Easy to Moderate, Trail Number: 20W14, Length: 17.5 
Miles 
                  GENERAL INFORMATION: The Sespe River Trail offers Wilderness 
access along a seventeen and a half mile, easy to moderate trail. Take Rose 
Valley Road to Lion Campground. Cross the river bed and head downstream (east) 
on the old road. Along the way there are seven more river crossings before 
Sespe Hot Springs, the first of which is at Bear Canyon after 4.5 miles. There 
are numerous dispersed camping locations and many deep pools along the river, 
though they may be dry during the summer. In June of 1992 this area became part 
of the Sespe Wilderness, and mountain bicycles are no longer allowed. Access is 
by foot or horseback only.

highway is under restrictive use once it enters the forest. Located 7 miles off
