Located on the less-visited west side of Pinnacles National Park adjacent to the West Visitor Contact Center, the Prewett Point Trail is a 1.0 mi/1.6 km lollypop trail that has a 75 ft/22.8 m elevation gain. My wife and I hiked this trail in late February 2024. Park in the lot for the visitor center and head toward the visitor center, where you will also find rest rooms. Just past the visitor center you will see the trailhead for the Prewett Point Trail. The trail is considered accessible as it is very compacted and well maintained. The trail begins by gently climbing along the hillside as it heads into the park. After about .25 mi/.40 km, the trail splits; you can go either direction as this portion of the trail is a loop that wraps around the hillside. Along the way there are several viewing pullouts, some with benches. One of the highlights of the hike is getting an excellent view of the famed Pinnacles. NOTE that the trail is almost entirely exposed with no shade, so having both sun protection and water on hand are highly recommended. I was in my late 60s when I hiked the Prewett Point Trail and found it to be relatively easy. It was a pleasant way to be introduced to the west side of Pinnacles National Park.
