Description

The trail starts behind the visitor center and makes its way into the hills. There are a couple of places to stop for a view and a couple of caves to peek into along the trail (the caves were closed because of a bat-carried disease). During the wetter seasons, there's a waterfall that you'll be able to get close to.

Our young kids did fantastic along the entire trail as there are natural and carved steps to help with climbs and descents. The trail ends with a final stair climb, and you're back at the visitor center where you can enjoy snacks and souvenirs for purchase, learn about the area, and visit some of the animals that live there.

While the distance of the trail is very manageable, this trail may not be accessible for everyone. The rock placement, steep sections, and uneven surfaces could make it difficult for older adults or people with mobility issues to safely navigate this trail. If you have any of those concerns, another trail in the park may be more enjoyable.
