Description
The Highland Trail is geared towards mountain bikers, but it's multi-use so hikers are welcome too. Just be aware of your surroundings and descending riders. The trail links the !Greens Lake Trailhead to the C-Trail, about two miles below the "C." A steady, but casual, climb over 1.6-miles makes this an easier jumping off point on a hike to the C-Overlook.
