Please dress in layers, bring water and wear sun protection. We will begin with a leisurely, guided walk through the garden.

At the summit, you will be rewarded with stunning panoramic views, opportunities to observe diverse wildlife, and a peaceful natural setting. Please note that the hike includes limited shade and several steep sections. Reviewers recommend starting early and wearing sturdy, supportive footwear.
