Hiking
The trailhead for the German Ridge Trail is located just off Gerald Road, and there is also parking available there. The German Ridge Trail is a multi-use trail, so you may also see horse riders and mountain bikers out on the trail as well. The trail loops for approximately 24 miles, and goes all the way down to the German Ridge Recreation Area and German Ridge Lake.
