Crest House Spur Trail is a short, easy hike in the Sandia Mountain Wilderness, part of the Sandia Ranger District of Cibola National Forest in New Mexico. The Forest Service manages the land, and the trail is an out-and-back that covers about 0.66 miles with a one-way climb of 289 feet, from a low point of 10,285 feet to a high of 10,620 feet. The trail is a quick addition to a day spent exploring the surrounding area. It sits about 0.1 mile from Switchback and Kiwanis Meadow Road, and the Kiwanis Cabin Trail is just as close. Climbers will find My Secret Garden about 0.2 mile away.
