Hike to Strawberry Peak via Red Box Gap – San Gabriel Mountains

Let’s hike to Strawberry Peak in the San Gabriel Mountains again! This is the tallest summit in the front country of the San Gabriel’s.

This hike will take us to the peak via Red Box Canyon. It is a 7.5 mile out and back hike. The elevation gain will be around 1,900 ft. The peak elevation is at 6,165 ft. We will start on a trail known as Barley Road. We will hit a junction at South Strawberry Saddle Trail. We will take this to the Strawberry Peak Trail.

I would bring layers, plenty of water, snacks, good hiking boots/shoes, sunscreen, poles, hat….

There is a restroom in the parking lot.
