Located off Via Linda & 124th Street
Finally the rain has left the area and the sun was shining brightly - time for a hike! This trail is approximately 4.5 miles round trip. I would consider it an intermediate hike compared to other trails I have hiked in and around the valley. We hiked to the Taliesin Outlook where we could look out over the valley and I think I could see Mt. Humphrey as I saw a mountain with a lot of snow in that direction. No one in the group could confirm or deny my sighting..... The terrain is smooth in most areas and rocky in others. So good hiking footwear is a must and make sure you have at least 2 liters of water with you. I actually took my first fall today by not picking my foot up high enough. Just a couple of skinned knees however I had to slow down a bit. All in all a very nice hike and I would definitely hike this trail again. Dogs are allowed on this trail but must be on a leash. There is also water & restrooms at the trail head.
