It is a hard hike, but it's absolutely worth it. Beautiful redwoods, flagrant laurel trees. Hiked for 3 hrs and didn't meet a single hiker.

A steep hike on the front-end, offering tranquility and solitude. No crowd, no view, just you and nature. Parking is a breeze at a dead-end in a neighborhood. Challenging but enjoyable.
