This place is phenomenal! I will absolutely be heading back, soon. I 100% recommend this area. There are great trails to hike and run on. I did some running initially for about 20 minutes, it was extremely hot that day so I stopped, hydrated and switched to hiking. I had a pack with me, which I would advise anyone that is hiking to ALWAYS have a pack of essentials with you.

It’s a mostly flat part to the trail and let’s you experience the view...
