Walking distance from our Yacht Street cabin, in fact most days my boyfriend and I run up it at 7am. Good workout if you run or walk it. Great views starting about halfway up and spectacular views at the top! About 3 miles round trip from the cabin.

Hike looks harder then it is, very short with excellent views. Very Instagramable. The first part is a narrow path and the last bit is a scramble over rocks.
