8 months agoAmazing views and Trail for walking and bicycles. Tons of spots to camp, firewood not available you'll have to bring your own firewood. Trail is easy at first and get tight the closer you get to the beach. There is a yort at the end that you can rent, enjoy and please keep it clean.

8 months agoSteep, and narrow in places down to the beach. (moderately easy) out and back. Good trails without a climb up top. You can get a good 3 miles in uptop. (Very easy) loop.

1 year agoOverall an easy hike. But there were some moderate elevation gains. Awesome views. You need to be aware of the tides so that you don’t get trapped.

4 years agoA nice hike down to the beach. There are a few muddy patches along the trail to navigate around, or through, and some steep drop offs that you must be careful with, but worth the hike to the scenic beach.
