The Devil's Corral Trailhead is located on the Bizz Johnson National Recreation Trail (non-motorized ) 7 miles west of Susanville. It can also be reached by driving west from Susanville 7 miles on California Highway 36. The Bizz Johnson Trail is an old railroad grade and has a dirt and graveled surface.
