Description
Trail 4 is a little wider than most trails in the park, with one steep uphill/downhill depending on where you start. It begins by the campground and is a 2.3 mile out-and-back trail, or you can use part of Trail 5 to make it a loop (to avoid lots of stairs, start at Trail 5). Trail 4 connects to Trail 7 and Trail 5 and takes you to Ogle Lake. You can even stop and rest at an overlook for Ogle Lake mid-way through Trail 4. The trail has firm ground and is generally flat except for one steep incline/decline depending on the direction you hike. Give yourself about an hour to hike this one way.
