Nice variety of typography. Definitely wait a few days after any rain as the trail was a little muddy in some parts. Overall though I will definitely be back. Download the map so you can stay on this extended trail that takes you on multiple color trails. It was a fun adventure!
Feels like choose your own adventure with so many trail options! Muddier than expected throughout.
Only did half the trail. I didn't finish before dark. Paths aren't very clear so deff. Download the map. It seemed more easy than moderate. There are a few climbs but bring sticks.
Great views. very difficult to navigate. had to turn around and use my phone a few times.
It was Beautiful perfect amount of ups and downs. So peaceful and quiet saw an owl and a Large Turtle. Great views of the lake and lots of places to have lunch!!!!!
Trail was poorly marked and terribly hard to follow as there are many spur trails.. overall a nice hike mostly easy with a rare few “Moderate” spots. Good views.. very humid when I was hiking, not sure if that’s always but soil was very moist so I suspect it’s always like that
Great trail slightly confusing on trail signs. We used All trails app. Helped keep us on correct trail
our 1st HARD trail, the 1st half is no joke but the views at the top was worth every step. nice easy ending downhill leading to the steps down to parking lot.
Just awesome!!! Great subtle inclines for hiking and lots of trails to explore. Could spend all day here. Some trails connect via road. Just follow the signs and color shapes.
