Resting above the foothills of Alpine, Lone Peak Mountain offers an incredible range of beautiful meadows, thick forests, and crystal clear mountain streams. Although Lone Peak offers routes from both Draper and Alpine, this article covers the trail on the south side of the mountain beginning at the trailhead in Alpine city. 

The trailhead begins about a mile from the base of the mountain and follows a dirt road that eventually meanders into steep switchbacks up the mountainside. After a grueling 90 minute climb the dirt road will eventually end at the 1st Hammongog; a beautiful meadow teeming with insects and wildlife. The trail from here is significantly less steep, however, still a challenge for unexperienced hikers. Taking the left trail at the fork of the 1st hammongog will lead through thick forest tunnels and overgrown brush. The entire trail itself offers incredible views of the valley and emerald green plantlife in every direction.
