To reach the trailhead at Kennally Creek campground turn east off Highway 55 onto the graveled and dirt Paddy Flat Road. Drive 14 miles to the campground. The beginning of this trail borders Kennally Creek as it froths over water-beaten boulders. In slightly less than a mile the trail crosses the North Fork of Kennally Creek on a wooden bridge. At 2.5 miles the trail crosses a creek. This is a flat, easy trail and the 2.5 mile trip makes a nice day hike. To hike to the Kennally Lakes or Cougar Lakes is a 15-18 mile steep hike. This is a popular horse trail as is the Needles trail which also takes off from the main Kennally Creek trail. A horse unloading ramp is just outside the campground. (Trail Difficulty - Moderate)
