Pharoah Lake Trail is a 1.3-mile access route to Pharoah Lake, part of the Pharaoh Lake Wilderness Area trail network. Short enough for a quick approach to the lake's shore; often combined with longer loops through the surrounding backcountry.
Pharoah Lake Trail runs 1.3 miles (2.0 km) with about 197 feet of elevation gain — an easy hike, with a gentle, rolling grade, about 45 minutes on the trail. It is also open to horseback riding.
