Description

This is a long, strenuous run that is beautiful the entire time. It takes anywhere from 1.5 to 2.5 hours to reach the summit. Half of the trails are wonderfully marked out and are pretty solid ground - the other half will leave you breathless and scrambling to continue. It does feel magical to be above the birds though.

The view from the top of Table Rock makes climbing it worth the effort!

Steady climb up stepped trail with some scrambling. Not good for running. Nice view from Governors Rock - didn't make it to Table Rock summit. 2.7mi
