Description

Head south on the Arabia Mountain Trail through forest, and past small creeks/waterfalls. There is a good chance you'll spot hares, deer, and snakes.

This route is great for a nice, quick, short hike. It has a little bit of uphill, a little bit of downhill, and plenty of flat segments. This variety are what make this route great when time is limited. The boardwalk sections are also a little forgiving on the legs.
