AMAZING! A very steep trail I might add. We only did 3.5 miles, only half of the trail. The trail is very narrow and rocky. I highly recommend to wear good hiking shoes because it can be a bit slippery. The best part was the views of the mountains and how quiet and serene it looked. Definitely a place to burn off your calories. I would rate this trail as hard.
Great hike! If you do the full loop you’ll get around 1400 ft elevation and 5 Miles. You could see some snow capped mountains at the top. Has a side that’s dirty and another that’s paved. Fun hike! Dog friendly.
I had plan to go to the fall but the google maps took me here. Very nice view and moderate trail. Because i was looking for a way to go toward the fall I lost the miles that I hiked. There were limited parking spots between ten to 15 cars. It should be easy for kids older than 8 and intresting. If you continue walking on mine path you will go to the beautiful part with running water under the shade of trees.
Beautiful trail, although some parts along cliff edges can be a bit dicey.
Very nice trails! Lots of shaded area, somewhat steep but beautiful all the way. Great views. Some benches and resting places. It has sim traffic, hikers as well as bikers. Really well maintain trails. Many options for routes to take. Some lizards and baby iguanas and many birds. The waterfall is absolutely stunning. Beautiful hike overall. Somewhat challenging. Great workout!
