Family Friendly Though somewhat steep, anyone can manage this paved path. Especially when it ends at such a stunning geologic oddity!

Description

This paved trail ends at a rock alcove with dripping springs. Look for trailside exhibits along the way which provide in depth information regarding the park's natural features.

The Weeping Rock is literally just that - a rock wall that seeps water from a spring. In the cold months, the "tears" of the rock can freeze, making for an awesome ice mural.
