Good intermediate level hike for those who want a steeper incline (just at the beginning/end) and narrow, rocky trails. It runs alongside Hope Creek and has plenty of accessess for fishing or enjoying the water. I would not attempt the trail after heavy rainfall because it does cross a small creek just after the beginning downhill that will be difficult if the water level rises. Overall a great afternoon hike with plenty of shade cover!
