Runner Notes

Step lively as there are many exposed roots along the pathway.

Description

Perhaps the steepest trail in the entire park, the Round Top Trail takes you up to the top of Round Top Hill and back down the other side. Many switchbacks make up most of this trail and the trip to the top is fun. A park bench at the top of the trail will greet you for a much-needed breather.

Flora & Fauna

Many markers designate specific old-growth trees, and the park is generally very well maintained.
