      Lovely place to hike with your pooch!

      Beautiful park with many great trails. We walked the Summit Trail up hill to the Rhododendron Trail and walked the loop. Moxie and Tonks loved it! Plenty of picnic areas and beautiful overlooks. While we were there in May, 2021 the restrooms were still closed which was a little inconvenient - hopefully they will open soon.

      A very easy hike

      This was a very nice hike with a couple of overlooks. The trail was easy enough that we will be back again with our senior dog.
