AllTrails rates this hike as moderate, with some hills and stream crossings. Please note that the Highland Park website says there is a $3 admission fee for trail use. Also, although the park allows dogs on its trails, we are regretfully unable to welcome dogs on hikes organized by chapters of American Pilgrims on the Camino.
