Description

This trail is part of the Tiger Mountain Trail network, which has been around for a couple of decades.

It's a mellow trail that is relatively smooth. It provides some very pretty views and a large number of bridge crossings. The trail is commonly used in both directions by bikers and hikers. Watch out for and be respectful of other trail users!

A lot of mountain bikers going by, and the trailhead was completely full by the time we got back, around 1300. Go early if you can. 5.6mi — 3h 22m
