Chantry Flat FCC - 25 miles

Ride Rating: advanced for climbing

Start: Lacy Park, San Marino

Ride Description: A beautiful 25 mile ride to the newly reopened Chantry Flat Rec Area. The ride starts from Lacy Park in San Marino. We traverse through San Marino and Arcadia. There is a mild climb up Highland Oaks Drive to warm-up the legs. The first regroup is at the Arno Drive cul-de-sac near the entry gate to Chantry Flat Road. From there it's a short but challenging 3-mile climb (6%-7% average incline) to the top; then it's time to rest and take in the wooded scenery, maybe even grab a bite at the rustic Adams Pack Station. Afterwards, there is a breath-taking descent
