Wednesday, December 24, 2025 by J.O.Enormously beautiful route. The bit at the ponds is indeed heavily flooded, but provided good footwear definitely doable with the planks there. We were impressed!

Wednesday, October 15, 2025 by Peter WilsThis is a great hiking trail, especially during the fall. The splash of color in the forests is a very nice backdrop. Unfortunately, one downside as well: the Cascade Ponds had turned into a big mud puddle and the hiking trail next to it was almost washed away. Fortunately, there were thick planks. I hope this beautiful piece will be restored to its former glory .... Happy hiking!
