Steady one mile incline. We included this trail in our approach to the Hike Inn trail which was 5 miles--making this a 6 mile X 2 or 12 mile hike. Larry and I accomplished this-our longest and most unforgetable hike to day on Sunday, July 9th, 2006. Our total hiking time was approx. 5 1/2 hours. Encountered a copperhead snake, dying baby bird, large owl, chipmunks, beautiful flowers, stunning insects and a lot of nice hikers. Beautiful trail.

Very nice vista at the top of this trail. You can turn this trail into a 2 mile loop by coming up or down the stairs on the waterfall trail. Saw several deer on our hike of this trail last weekend.
