When in El Paso, hiking the Franklain Mountains from Transmountain up to Mammoth Cave is a must do rite next to L&Js and Cattleman’s. It is a little over 3 mile round trip. You can choose to take the ridge line or go straight up the depression on all fours for the last 1/2 mile up. Either way once you get to your destination you can see Juarez, Downtown, Northeast, Westside and New Mexico. I have made it to the top 3 times now. Now it’s your turn!
Good quick hike, but $5 per person is a bit steep. Maybe if there were some amenities, like a bathroom, or some trail maintenance, but theres a hodgepodge of trails that spiderweb everywhere and no bathrooms at the trailhead.
Beautiful trail
Nice hike
