About this Adventure

Not all trails need to be tough! This route offers a scenic, well-graded drive over a historic pass before dropping into the woods and entering wide-open Waunita Park. Continue north toward Hancock Pass, where the terrain becomes rocky but manageable. Follow the pass to the short spur that leads directly to the Alpine Tunnel parking lot. Trail starts at Old Monarch Pass off of Highway 50 & is 85 miles round trip ( 5 - 6 hours ) Trail is easy going + family friendly. The Alpine Tunnel was once the highest railroad tunnel in the world. At an altitude of 11,523 feet, it was the first tunnel to be built through the Continental Divide. Beyond the west portal exit of the tunnel, stood the alpine Tunnel Station, the highest railroad station in the nation; as well as a turntable, water tank, stone boarding house, and engine house that was large enough to house six engines.
