It's a somewhat muddy, rooty and rocky trail. It snakes it's way with small rolling hills and some stairs. Soon you'll come to Damfino Lakes. There are two small lakes with a boardwalk. After the lakes you'll walk through the forest and go through some open meadows.
The last meadow has a creek and one last big climb to the ridge where if it's a sunny day the views pop out. Still on a rainy the day the meadows offers beauty. Happy & safe trails.
