Rattlesnake Trail is a two ended great outdoors trail with two trailheads, so if you can get a ride from someone, you can backcountry walk it just one way. This great outdoors trail has a total elevation difference of 1,144 feet which is an average number. You should count on this hike taking about 6.5 hours, but you never know stuff could go wrong and you could get stuck so be prepared for that. You spend the whole trek in roughly the same elevation zone which means the conditions are about the same from start to finish. This hiking and backpacking trail sometimes gets very dry, so make sure you check current conditions and fire restrictions with local forest authorities before you head out. Rattlesnake Trail is quite long, so don't forget to pack enough supplies. Being 7.6 miles long it's a mid length trek.
