Short, stair-heavy canyon trail that rewards photographers with intimate foothill scenes, framed suburban backyards, and a quick overlook of Lake Elsinore. Best at golden hour or sunrise for soft light and fewer people. Trail is short (~3 mi RT), mostly stairs and dirt; parking at the park (opens ~6am). Watch for rattlesnakes and keep dogs leashed.
