Sunset Trail is a 53-mile adventure from near Needles westward to Route 66, and it provides access to a dozen other intersecting trails one can explore.
The trail follows the flat contours of Ward and Fenner Valleys and has no significant obstacles. A few washouts from heavy rainfall have bypasses that have been marked with cones or barricades. A new offroad driver in a high clearance 4x4 would enjoy this trail. The trail passes through a very remote desert, and drivers should be prepared for self-rescue.
Along the trail, there are a few dispersed campsites, but no wind-sheltered campsites. Campfires may be prohibited, and it is the responsibility of campers to know and follow any fire restrictions.
