Puma Point can be accessed via the Puma Point Interpretive Trail near Wilkerson Pass. This trail is the easiest in the South Park Ranger District and provides stunning views of the Sawatch and Mosquito Ranges as well as the Park. Interpretation for the trail is provided through a downloadable brochure that outlines the plants, wildlife, and geologic features that one might encounter along the trail. Brochures are sometimes available at the trailhead as well.

Park at the Wilkerson Pass Visitor's Center off highway 24 and follow the signs towards the Puma Point Trail on the north side of the visitors center. It is a relatively short walk down to the cache and a nice opportunity to stretch your legs after a long drive.
