Description
Three different overlooks along the way make for a great hike. On the way up, it's going to be steep starting from the beginning and will remain that way for about 2/3 of the hike. There is some scrambling and one part near the middle that you have to do some minor climbing. Once at the top, you can enjoy the views as well as continue on to the State Park system. This trail is pretty popular with lots of hikers in the summer as it is located in a generally pretty well-known place.
