Trail Description

Overlook Trail connects Fairmont Hot Springs Resort to the Fairmont Ridge/ Marble Canyon condominiums. It follows the top of the south side of Fairmont Creek Canyon for 0.5 km. Start the trail high up on the ridge. As you go further down the trail, you end up right beside the creek. Look for a main double track trail going to the left and follow it to Geary Lookout. There is a nice single track trail going off the main trail to the right that also goes to Geary lookout. Stay on the trail going up the ridge from Geary Lookout for a fun loop back to the RV Park.
