There is a nice, easy 10 mile out-and-back hike or mountain biking trail on the Sugar Pine railroad grade dirt road. From Twain Harte, look for the start of the trail on the east side of Confidence South Fork Road just north of the intersection with Middle Camp Sugar Pine Road. The sign on the gate says Private Property, but it's open for access to hikers and bikers. Bring Fido, too!

Drinks & Nightlife
We love this place and have been members since our first trip through Gold Country. Great wines, and a completely irreverent attitude, with rubber chickens displayed proudly throughout. They have regular music nights in the summer, well worth the drive. 45 min from the house.
