This is an easy to moderate 3 mile hike and is excellent for families, beginner hikers, or geology and wildlife enthusiasts. After a steep initial descent down old jeep road the trail transitions to well-maintained trail that climbs up and out of the canyon meandering around rock outcroppings before making its way back up. It ends with a slightly steeper climb up to the scenic overlook.
