Antelope Bench is easy and offers diverse scenery. It passes by Lookout Mountain in the northwest and Little Antelope Valley in the southeast. Toward the southeastern end, there is also a (white) Clay Pit Mine. The trail winds through sparse forests and open valleys, providing a sample of different terrains east of the 395 highway. The northwestern half of the trail has more tree cover and shade than the southwestern half.
Most of the trail is gravel with a few rocky sections, and when conditions are good, it can be traversed with a stock 2WD truck or SUV. The trail has several locations that could be used for camping, as dispersed camping is allowed in the Inyo National Forest.
