Wrights Lake and Enchanted Pools Loop

From the Wrights Lake trailhead area, this loop leaves the lakeshore through the inlet meadows and forest, joining the Twin Lakes Trail in the Eldorado National Forest and at the edge of Desolation Wilderness.

It then heads toward the Enchanted Pools, where South Fork Silver Creek works through polished granite into pools and cascades, before curving around the Tyler Lake Trail and Rockbound Trail sector among open Sierra slabs, sparse woodland, and mountain views.

The return closes the loop by descending toward Old Corral Loop Trail and Wrights Lake, bringing the main scenery in sequence: lake, marshy creek, forest, granite pools, falling water, mountain terrain, and the quiet lakeside basin.
