Pink Lake Trail is a very easy hike that most people can do in about an hour. It's a wonderful hike with beautiful views of the blue green lake. This hike involves a lot of stairs so you will want to leave your bikes and strollers behind. The area is popular and sees a lot of tourism, so you may want to arrive at the trailhead early to get a parking spot. It is also has a unique lake with a bright green color, especially in the summers due to algae that grows in the water.
