The hike was beautiful! It was pretty steep, and with the altitude I got tired pretty quickly. Definitely do-able for all ages though if you like being active. more »

Parking at the CHATAUQUA PARK can be a challenge. We parked at the free shuttle lot a mile away but walked it easily for extra steps. Lots of great trails to choose from. more »
