“A nearly 2-mile loop with large stone steps and hillside views mixed among the trees.”

Description
Here is the only "tricky" part. You'll see two roads: one with a brick structure splitting the lanes, and another that is cinder with a metal gate across it. Take the metal gate road; there are signs that indicate it is the Lockhart Trail (aka dog walking path). You'll head down the fire road for a hundred feet or so before a sign (on your right) will indicate the trail turns left off the road, down a few stone steps. Continue on the trail from here.
In general, the trail is really nice and as you make your way around the loop, you'll come to a stretch of large stone steps which are unique. A section of the trail follows along the hillside with a great view in the fall with colors from the trees across the valley and above Squaw Run.
