    Beautiful run down the creek and back up again. Tricky to dodge all the rocks and roots at times, and a little navigation required to get by some rather large pipes. Beautiful old stone walkways and swimming spots.

    A short but heavy trail. For a lowland dweller like me that is... This trail starts with a hefty climb. Not too steep, just barely runable. After the initial climb comes a more comfortable middle part. Less steep, more l...

    Perfect round for 2,5 hours hike. Different landscapes and not so tactical so easy to manage.
