One of the more challenging hiking inclines in the area. Really gets the blood flowing!

Love the incline of this hill. Nice views up top that connect to a variety of other trails on the bluffVisited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entryFree

Holy moly was this a hike! Uphill with dogs! Was nice to have dogs help pulling me up but if looking for a good workout hike then this is the place lol!

I'd take a half star off if I could for the parking, especially as the trail gains more popularity. Still my personal favorite though. Steep, but paved, so at a decent pace you can work up a good burn without twisting your ankle on a rock or tree root.

The quarry is always a great place to visit. Just wish all dog walkers would collect their poop bags!!

Challenging hill to climb right from the get-go. Quite rewarding scenery when making the loop. Enjoy a relaxing end by strolling down that challenging first hill.

The regulars here call it "cardio hill", and with good reason!

Most excellent place to visit.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entryFree

Trail is challenging but worth it!
