This segment of the Zuma Trancas trail passes along the western edge of one of the highest ridgelines in the area, providing views of the surrounding Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area and the Pacific Ocean. Most of the trail is fairly exposed and dominated by low to medium height chaparral vegetation. This section is only accessible by neighboring trails, including sections of the Backbone Trail.

From PCH in Malibu, head east on Kanan-Edison Road. Trail access will be on the left after approximately 2.6 miles. Dume Canyon Motorway will be on the right. Kanan-Edison Road
Trail can also be accessed via Zuma Canyon Connector Trail or Canyon View Trail.
