This is one of our favorite hikes. It’s not difficult and it’s very scenic. It has a solid trail path, nice walk, water is going down stream, and the moving water is safe to drink. It’s actually really good lol and I’d recommend a sip.
It has some nice hills, after starting very open and in the sun, you then start going up the mountain into shaded forest.
