I decided to sneak out of the office for an afternoon hike and escaped away to this trail. It was a great experience. The trails are well maintained and vary in difficulty and grade, with different options available along the way. I completed a 3-mile loop with a pretty steep grade on the way up. You share the trails with those on bikes, so keep your eyes and ears open. It was pretty active when I visited, but parking was available. The only downside concerns pet owners. There were several dog waste bags carelessly left along the trails. Although I appreciate pet owners being responsible by picking up after their furry friends, I would also hope they'd properly dispose of the bags. All in all, definitely a must do if you're in the Lakewood area.
