Beautiful and quick hike! We spent around 1-1.5 hrs here. There is plenty of parking and trails were very easy to follow. No bathroom on site though so plan accordingly. Stunning views!!

This is a wonderful hike with views that make the short climb so worth it. The ascent is moderately difficult for me. I am in my early sixties with serious arthritis, a heart condition, and a bit overweight. I walk daily. People of all ages were hiking. There are switchbacks to ease the climb. We saw a peregrine falcon near a cliff below the dance floor and several turkey vultures at the nose. We spent a total of 2 hours on the trail; probably half of that was at the top.

The past few years I have made it a tradition to do a sunrise hike in November because the sun actually comes up in the perfect spot to sit and enjoy it. The trail is usually well marked and easy to follow even with the leaves on the ground. Parking costs nothing and the valley view is well worth the hike. Slow hikers could probably do this hike under an hour easily and advanced hikers in about 15 minutes depending on the trail you take.

Nice easy hike with an expansive view of surrounding farmland. The trail up is a steady, moderate climb through woods. Switchbacks make the climb easier. Several benches near the top afford a resting place for the winded. The flat shale “dance floor” at the top has names and dates carved in it going back to the 1800s.

Well worn in trails made for easy to moderate walking, nice benches and stopping points, and amazing views from the summit on "the dance floor"(smooth slate rock with lots of signatures from previous hikers. Plenty of dogs and children, though might be challenging for some sections with steep stair like rock formations. Overran a good, short relaxing hike!
