Loon Lake Trail has a total elevation difference of 556 feet which is a lower than average number. This backcountry trek shouldn't take more than 4.5 hours, but you never know stuff could go wrong and you could get stuck so be prepared for that. The great outdoors hiking trail stays roughly within the same elevation zone the whole time which means the conditions are about the same from start to finish. Being 5.4 miles long it's a mid length backcountry trek. Sometimes this trail gets really dry, so make sure you check current conditions and fire restrictions with local forest authorities before you head out. This trail is not that long but it's always pleasant to bring some emergency supplies, you never know what could happen. This wilderness hiking trail has two trailheads, so if you can get a ride from someone, you can hike it just one way.
