Lookout Road is a dirt fire road that serves as an access point for Bulldog Motorway. The trail starts in a residential neighborhood with very limited street parking. The trail involves a short climb up to the ridgeline to reach the intersection of Bulldog Motorway and Bulldog Lateral.

From the 101, exit at Kanan Rd and head south. Turn left onto Cornell Way. Travel 2.3 miles and continue straight onto Lake Vista Drive for an additional 1.1 miles to Crags Dr. Turn left. After 0.6 miles make a slight left on Lookout Dr. Turn left on Maqueketa Terrace. The trail begins at the end of this road; although, due to limited parking, it may be necessary to park a distance from the trailhead and walk in.
