Itinerary description

An easy and lovely hike for the family. Beautiful views of the mountains and the ocean and a great breeze off the ocean! We went on a fairly overcast day, so the temp was perfect, even if the views weren't as clear.

Still, you still have so much to look at and such a clearly marked trail, so you're free to take it all in. A lot less challenging than the more technical hikes over in RAK, and I don't usually like the East Coast as much, but with the ocean, this is still a really nice change of pace! Enjoy!

We got here early and no one was here, bit by the time we got back it was bedlam! Maybe a good idea to park below and walk up, even if there IS a spot up top!
