It is a Forest Park hike. So with exception of a couple short sections in the beginning, it is all in an old growth forest, and not so many views. Most of this hike is on dirt roads, except of 1.93 km / 1.2 miles section on the Wildwood Trail. During the rainy season the route get muddy, but it is not too bad.
