ScenicMaple Springs Road is the backdoor to Saddleback Mountain from Orange County. One of Orange County's few trails, this is a popular overland route for people wanting to get out of the house and stay local. Others say they enjoy this road because it leads to the best view of Orange County. If you are fortunate to have a few hours around sunset, the view from the top of Saddleback Mountain has been known for photographs of the sun setting over Catalina Island out in the Pacific Ocean with Orange County in the foreground.
The lower section of the trail has a unique scenery for Orange County. The area is covered in oaks and pines. A nearby creek runs most of the year. It's a great place for a picnic and if you are lucky you can find yourself a swimming hole.

Trail Navigation
Maple Springs Road begins where Silverado Canyon Road ends. This mountain trail is mostly a dirt road with a couple of water crossings and several very tight hairpin corners. The risk of pin stripping is mainly along the lower section of the pavement. The bushes get overgrown during the winter as the gate is often closed for long periods of time. Passing is the other time pin stripping can be an issue as the trail is only one vehicle wide. So making space to pass means both people have to pull off the side of the trail.
The trail is suitable for all types of high-ground clearance vehicles, meaning you will likely see a lot of traffic and a lot of unique things along this route.
For a number of reasons, including weather, this trail closes often and without warning. Please read below for the number to call to determine if the Forest Service has the gate locked or not.
Please check with Cleveland National Forest for trail open or closed status. This trail closes for many reasons throughout the year.

1. Trailhead (0 mi)
The parking lot at the fire station at the bottom of the trail is a popular spot to air down.
2. Maple Springs Gate (0.03 mi)
Pass through the gate. The gate may be locked because of road conditions.
On the other side of the gate is an open area along the trail for a large group to air down under the ample shade provided by the oak trees. The oaks are native to this area. As recently as the 80s, this entire canyon was one large oak grove forest. Due to the fires started mostly by humans, we are only left with these small patches of trees.
3. Creek Crossing (0.12 mi)
One delight of the Maples Springs trail is that it often crisscrosses Silverado Creek. This is the first crossing and one of the more beautiful ones. It is rare that the water is more than 4 to 6 inches deep, but after storms, it has been as deep as a few feet.
4. 7W05 Hiking Trailhead (0.16 mi)
7W05 is a hiking trail that takes you toward Beaks Place on Main Divide. This is a challenging hike. The trail was once an alternate motorway up the mountain.
There is plenty of parking in this area if you want to hike the trail or use this spot as an alternate area to air down.
Don't forget to display your adventure pass if you plan on parking in this area. If you need to get one, the general store at the entrance of Silverado Canyon can often sell them.
5. Scenic (0.78 mi)
Beautiful scenic views and sounds of a babbling brook and small waterfalls are a welcome part of the trail experience.
6. Creek Crossing (0.85 mi)
The second creek crossing has a pull-out large enough for 5 to 6 vehicles. The pull-out is before the creek crossing.
7. Creek Crossing (1.02 mi)
The trail winds back and forth over Silverado Creek.
8. Large Pull-Out (1.67 mi)
This large pull-out used to be covered by one of the oldest oak trees in the area. Unfortunately, the tree fell over. There's plenty of space to park and enjoy the area. Take a short hike down to the creek, as there are often swimming holes in this area.
9. Creek Crossing (1.82 mi)
Not all creek crossings are created equal. This one has some great views down stream.
10. Creek Crossing (1.95 mi)
Once a long gravel bed, this was replaced with cement in the mid-2000s to help stop the insane amount of people who got stuck at this crossing.
11. Creek Crossing (2.36 mi)
This creek crossing is often more overgrown then the others.
12. Creek Crossing (2.41 mi)
If you are counting, this is the seventh creek crossing. There's only one more to go.
13. Final Creek Crossing (3.09 mi)
This is the final creek crossing of the trail. This spot often doesn't have water running through the canyon. It's certainly beautiful when it does, usually in late winter.
The trail transitions to dirt from asphalt. This area is known for its ladybug migration and tarantula run. You can contact the rangers office to find out when this is expected.
14. Switchback and Hiking Trail (3.52 mi)
As the trail enters the mountains there are many tight switchbacks. Too much speed when traveling down the trail is dangerous, so keep a sharp eye out. This switchback has a stunning view down the canyon.
This spot also intersects with the hiking trail that travels straight up the hillside, which used to be an off-road trail.
15. Obstacle (Occasionally) (3.81 mi)
Usually, the trail is rutted here from running water and spinning tires.
16. Scenic (4.28 mi)
More views of the pines and oaks along the route. Don't forget to check out the dry waterfall or the stunning views off in the distance.
17. Large Pull-Out (4.34 mi)
This might be the largest pull-out along the trail. Often large groups stop here to hang out and enjoy a meal.
18. Deadman's Corner Switchback (4.68 mi)
The one spot people have the most issues with, Deadman's Corner, is a very tight switchback that has a spring running across it. Coupled with this being on a steeper section of the trail, people often carry too much speed into it and don't make the corner. It is common if you look over the side to see at least one vehicle down there.
Note: There appears to be a trail continuing straight through the corner. This is not a trail, and it ends just feet ahead. This spot is good for 1 or 2 vehicles to stop and enjoy the area's shade or hike down to the crippled vehicles below.
19. Switchback and Closed Play Area (5.64 mi)
This switchback once had an area to test out your vehicle. The forest service has closed the area. But higher up the trail are plenty of open areas for a group to stop and take a break.
20. Scenic (6.27 mi)
The trail is full of spectacular views. Don't forget to take in the scenery of this epic trail.
21. Obstacle (Occasionally) (6.76 mi)
This spot often has runoff from Maple Spring creating a minor washout.
22. Open Area (6.79 mi)
This spot used to be a recognized campsite. Now it is just an open area for people to hang out.
23. Switchback (6.95 mi)
One of the many switchbacks on this route that people should be aware of.
24. Obstacle (Optional) (7.29 mi)
The hardest optional obstacle on the trail, this hill climb has large holes from spinning wheels. The hill is a 25-40 degree climb but has massive holes that could easily swallow a 31-inch tire. Articulation is a must, or lockers will be needed.
25. Optional Play Area (7.36 mi)
The Play Area was once a trail intersection. The play area has a dozen or so hill climbs. The climbs range from 4 to 10 feet, allowing people to test out their suspension. On top is a large flat area that could easily host a group of over 20 vehicles. This is often a popular place for people to stop and hang out.
26. Gate (7.42 mi)
This is the upper gate to the trail at Main Divide. Off to the southeast is Harding Truck Trail, closed by the forest service in the 90s.
27. Trail Ends (7.49 mi)
The trail ens where Maple Springs Road connects with Main Divide Road. A right takes you to the top of Saddleback. A left takes you to Bedford Road, Beaks Place, and Corona.
Not allowed
There is no dispersed camping along this trail.
There are many campgrounds in the area, such as O'Neill Park in Trabuco Canyon or Canyon RV Park near the 91 Freeway.

My favorite mountain trail in SoCal so far. Plenty of space on trails for oncoming traffic, generally smooth, some sections with jagged and a plethora of rocks. The other trails (main divide road and the southern one that goes to the radio towers) are pretty easy and have great views as well. A few areas to test out your rig too. If youre one of those sapsuckers who likes to flip your rig over and constantly be welding your frame back together this trail would be boring for you. For all the adults who have proper dopamine levels in their brain this is a perfect trail for you.

Very easy trail that takes you up to a junction point where you can branch off to other trails. This trail was kind of crowded on a Saturday due to how easy it is. Some spots to pull off and have lunch, but beware of broken glass. This trail hasn’t been treated nicely by the community because there is tons of trash and broken glass. Please clean up after yourself and leave the trail better than you found it.

So, I live and work in the area and have been a little frustrated about all the closures in the past several years on every accesible trail EXCEPT Maple Springs Rd. So, I’ve been looking at maps and studying possibilities for alternate routes up the mountain, and finally found one on Monday. I came up the mountain on the Corona side and ended up working my way up to Beek’s place. From there I checked the website for trailer closures, and the forest service website said that Maple Springs was open, so I decided to make the long drive around to that gate before heading home. Problem was, when I got there at almost 9pm, the gate was locked up tight. I ended up having to make my way all the way back to my “secret entrance” and didn’t get off the mountain until 12:30am. What a bummer.
I can’t lie, it was a lot of fun having the whole mountain to myself all night, but on the other hand, it frustrates me that we continue to be shut out of public land more and more at the whim of Rangers, or whomever it is that makes the decision to close gates…like Skyline, Indian Truck Trail, Elsinore, Black Star Canyon, Weir Canyon, Gypsum canyon. I have a hard time understanding their motivation and/or reasoning.

Great place for locals as well as folks from a far. Panoramic views in every direction in many spots. Best views from Santiago Peak. Been through many times from various directions in truck, suv, mtb, etc... Easy enough for most suvs and even honda accords depending on the grading conditions.

Took my Tacoma offroad 4x4 and it handled it no problem with no lift or tires. I did have to use 4x4 once on the trail but other than that it is fine. Takes about one hour each way to finish the trail. I loved it because it’s a great beginner trail!

Trail is open and in my rookie opinion EASY but definitely a lot of traffic on a Saturday noon and with the traffic and lack of offroading experience gets a little harder. we saw a bunch of subaru's so if you have a low clearance car can do too.

Took the kid and his friends up this weekend and had a great time. Super easy trail anyone can do in a stock higher clearance vehicle such as a Subaru. We went through to Main Divide Mid all the way to the radio towers, unfortunately the gate was locked from there so we had to turn around.

The Maple Springs Trail is a pretty easy trail, but the views and easy access for a lot of residents in Orange County makes it a go to spot. There’s also a lot of cool play areas and spots where you can test your rig’s abilities along the way up.

Trail Experience: Beginner
This is a great trail for beginners and isn't too rough unless your passenger(s) are pregnant or get car sick easily. There are a lot of windy turns, bumps, and awesome views that aren't too difficult. I would personally rate this trail more on the moderate side as their are some tight corners, dips, and during rainy season would require several shallow water crossings. I even saw snow at the very top of the peak! If you want solitude, I would go on weekdays or early weekends because it's a very popular spot. We didn't make it all the way to the top because one of my passengers was pregnant so didn't want to push it too much. But overall it's a fantastic trail. I think a 2WD with high clearance can do it no problem. Highly, highly recommended!

Took Maple Springs to Bedford Road in Corona. Such an easy and smooth ride. Definitely need ground clearance in a few areas but 4wd wasnt needed. Saw two cars in the beginning of trail and a crew camping. That's it for almost 2hrs. Would definitely do it again and maybe camp with rooftop tent. The recent grading sure makes a difference. Best conditions I've ever seen this trail.

it was my birthday today 7-6-20 I wanted to go to the top of saddleback, i have not been back since the late 70's when 2 cousin's were racing each other down from the top, both were driving vw baja bug's and at the hair-pin turn the first vw baja went thru it and some IDIOT was coming up hill and took the inside of the hair-pin and the second vw baja had to take the outside of the hair-pin turn and ran out of road and went over the side it had just happened right in front of us we were in my friends early ford courer p/u, the first cousin had turned around because he seen the IDIOT driver and his cousin was not behind him anylonger , we stoped and climbed down the side of the cliff?? to the 2nd guy with his cousin in the 1st baja and helped him back up to the road, thank GOD he was ok, but he did get a broken finger and a concussion,, he said what i wrote and going over he said that the door would not open from the inside DARN VW'S and as he went over the side head on, the vw baja bug hit huge rock with the front nose and went down the side END OVER END that's when he had to jumpout and that's what he did
he was ok as i said and we climbed back over and stripped out the vw baja bug and roped up all the part's wheels - motor-shocks- everything we could it was like PICK A PART, after we all drank a beer and smoked a joint , other then the time warp the road was 90% better than the late 70's because i rember deep rut's,
and there was a lot more built all over the O.C. now, ,me and my lady stopped at the silverado cafe and grabbed some burger's and fries, and drink's before the trip up to the top, it was her first time up we both grew up in so, oc. and she allway's looked at it so she was amazed with the view's and my 3rd time up, so that's my story i hope you liked it, CAMP CRICKET ( where it brake time all the time ) HERE IS THE VEIW LOOKING TOWARD MY HOUSE IN LAKE MISSION VIEJO,

We took Maple Springs Rd in both directions as a path to and from the North Main Divide. Id put this trail at a difficulty level 1. The first few miles are paved with some holes and the dirt section was obviously recently scraped so that made it much more accessible but it was still very dusty and with some small rocks strewn about. I saw a compact 2wd car going on the dirt section going up the hill with a trailer towing a motorcycle and also several pickups several pickups. There are not many sections that would not allow 2 vehicles to pass each other. Also watch for hikers and bicyclists. We encountered 4 hikers and a mountain biker going up the trail When I saw them ahead I stopped to allow the dust cloud to move on avoiding them. There are mountain lion warnings posted at the trailhead and on a prior trip we did spook a lion who ran across the road ahead of us.

Trail is great for beginners. Nothing too extreme or technical. First quarter of trail was paved road. Rest was combo of dirt and loose rocks. About half way up the dirt portion, you come to an area with several different trails. The trail that leads to TV/Cell towers was open and was the path most were taking. It was narrow in places, but very manageable for two way traffic. The View from very top by the TV/Cell towers was phenomenal. Go to the end where the American flag is to get best panoramic view of Orange County and Catalina. Took a 9 year old and and and 18 year old, as well as my wife, and all had fun!

*5/25/20 can't add today's date for some reason.
It is a great trail for beginners and smaller SUVs that don't have those big old tires. It connects to a lot of other cool trails. Unfortunately some people were blocking one of those trails with their pick ups and wouldn't let me pass. I didn't want any trouble so I just turned back. Did the trail and back in a few hours with my tracker. Saw a lot of butterflies and even a snake! Also, on my way down, I stoped at a local diner, accidentally left the lights on while having breakfast and my battery died, luckily, there is a mechanic right across the street and we were able to jump start it.

Trail was open Sunday 5/17/20, moderately busy. Was able to take the trail very easy to the end of the trail where it meets with "Main Divide - Middle Section to Saddleback - 3S04" & "3S04 - Main Divide Middle Northern Section" at what the directions call the Play Area. The Play Area around 2pm had many jeeps and 4x4 vehicles stopped for lunch and hanging out. Coming from this trail and into the play area I decided to take the second left turn gate that leads you up to the Lookout Point where the huge cell towers are for the highest point in OC. Not many shady areas once you get out of the large pine trees coming up this trail. If you're looking to stop for lunch in a nice shaded area then the Play Area is not for you. Stop early on in the section where you go through lots of trees and pines.

Super easy trail. This trail is a great little afternoon or early evening trip. Nothing technical at all. It's good for the first timers or if you just installed something new and you want to see how it changed your rig. The trail itself has a few areas that you can play on but as mentioned before nothing that is technical or requiring lockers. Watch for traffic as the weekends tend to be busier and it's easy to get distracted with the views. Watch for Hikers and Mountain Bikers. Sunsets are awesome from a few different spots on the trail.

This the closest open trail for OC folks. Nice and easy, so you can take the whole family, with a couple fun spots at the top and several miles past the left gate to play with your rig. Today we took it to Bedford Trail, which drops you into Corona. We stopped at Tom's Farm there for lunch and a train ride with the kids.
It can get very busy with rigs, dirt bikes, mountain bikers, and hikers. Stay alert.

Gate was finally open after trying a few times. Drove up with the family just for a day drive and the trail made the drive that much better. The kids enjoy being out on the trails so when we were finally able to hit this one, we were all excited to check it out. Especially with this being in our backyard, I’d say we’ll be up here a lot more if the gates remain open. As mentioned above, the trail is very easy and mellow for a leisure drive. Even saw a minivan coming down on our way up so that should tell you something haha overall I think this is a great “beginners” trail for this wanting to get their boots in the dirt. Highly recommended.

As stated below, it is open, but they are doing a lot of work up there. Reason it was closed so long is because they were fixing potholes and grading the road as well as clearing it from the last series of storms. There are a lot of pallets and things up on Main Divide so be aware, and many of the fences have been put back after being ripped out from the fire. Stay on the trail, don't tear down any of the new fences, otherwise the FS may decide it's not worth it and close it again. Don't be that guy that ruins it for everyone!

TRAIL IS OPEN!! Went up Maple Springs today to North Main with a couple others. Found that North Main is open over to Bedford Rd, so we were able to go up and over. Finally, trails open in Cleveland NF! They are working on putting back many of the guard rails to the closed areas that were ripped out by the dozers and other fire rigs during the fires, so beware of the work areas along North Main Divide. Lots of stacked rails and pallets of concrete.

Maple Springs was indeed open today (despite it raining for 5 days straight, but you know, govt shutdown= no money to shut the gate.) Road is extremely torn up, creek was ripping, it was flooded across the crossings on the paved portion, but we made it through. Lots of long, deep, off camber ruts, some large boulders that have fallen recently, and many areas that the hills are 'sketchy' looking at best. I think this next major rainstorm forecasted for tomorrow might do it in until the FS can clear the road. Lots of mud puddles up on Main Divide too. Overall it was fun, nice to see it a little more torn up than just the smoothly graded road it has been lately. Top end of Main Divide is closed at Santiago Peak gate, west MD is open to Bedford and beyond.

My wife and I drove Maple Springs this evening just before sunset. It's a great drive, as always, with views of the OC and IE as well as Catalina Island off in the distance. The trail must have been graded recently because it was WAY smoother than it was just a month or two ago making for a quicker than usual trip to the summit.

The Forest Service reported Maple Springs would be open on the 15th after being closed due to the Holy Fire. It was indeed open today. Our goal was to view the damage from the Holy Fire when reaching Main Divide road. Very dusty and with its share of users including mountain bikes, dual sport motorcycles, bow hunters and an occasional Jeep.

Open obviously and started at the end of Silverado. The lower section follows the creek and was heavily oak tree'd, for a nice cool morning ride starting at 9am on a beautiful day. A thursday so hoping for light traffic. Pulled over for a couple mountain bikes going in both directions. Very dry and rocky so glad I aired down. At Play Spot 3 saw a couple apparitions in my dusty cloud and pulled over for a couple dual sport bikes who blew by in a scary race up the mountain.
