Reviews
"Simple 2.5mi hike with small climbs (~100ft) and crossing over some small streams. Great tree cover and shade from the sun. The posted map is a little misleading when returning to the parking lot. We never found the .25mi section of trail that the map said existed. Instead, we cut through the golf course parking lot to find out car in the adjacent lot."
"The trail was quite rocky in the beginning. Lots of water to admire along the way. Wish the "offshoot" with the overlook was marked bc we missed it. Overall a beautiful trail that is well maintained."
"Lovely hike. Well marked trail. 7 miles. Make sure you visit the offshoot. About 3 miles in going counterclockwise"
"We took the loop but good trail. A little rocky at first but gets better. Easy parking too."
"Very nice lightly used trail. We saw now one else. Don't miss the outstanding views by taking a very lightly used spur trail up the ridge from the high point of the trail."
