This hiking trail has a total elevation difference of 2,406 feet which is about average. The time needed for this trek is roughly 7 hours, but of course some people walk a bit slower and some a bit faster. With its 7.8 miles of walking distance it's a mid length hike. There are two trailheads to chose from, one in each end, so if you can get a ride from someone, you can backcountry walk it just one way. This is a wilderness trail that is quite long, so make sure you bring plenty of supplies. This wilderness trail sometimes gets very dry, so make sure you check current conditions and fire restrictions with local forest authorities before you head out. Some parts of Sandstone Trail are much higher up than other parts of the wilderness hiking trail, so keep in mind that you may need to dress differently at different elevations.
