This loop is sort of a hidden gem with not many other trails, let alone FKTs, that are very close by. Start the route at the trailhead, not the parking lot where you pay. The trailhead can be accessed through a 0.5 mile long paved road through the campground, perfect for a short warmup. Once you arrive at the trailhead, take the Dripping Springs Trail all the way to Palomar Divide Road (it’s more of a merge than a trail change, and more of a singletrack than a road). Follow Palomar Divide to the Wildhorse Trail, then descend this.

San Salvador is El Salvador's beautiful capital city with great food, nightlife, and people. While a lesser known travel destination, El Salvador is quickly becoming popular for international travel and business. While safety is always an important consideration, crime over the past few years has exponentially improved.
