An awesome hike with beautiful views! The longer loop is 1.5 hours and is definitely worth doing. After you get out of the forest, just beyond the turn off for the shorter loop, you get some of the best views on the hike. Beware though, there was quite a bit of broken glass in the parking lot and clearly had been some breakins lately. I parked just beyond the parking lot on the side of the street which felt much safer.
Lovely walk, well worth it in nice weather. Walked all the way to the beach and back along
Beautiful walk. Not hard to do at all- very easy and I’m not a great walker! Little effort for great views!
Very nice walk with a beautiful lookout. Easy and not long!
Good walk, the detour to the flow worms was nice even during the day as there is a small waterfall there that you can walk underneath.
On a sunny winters day the walk up to the pa sites and back down to Bryan's Beach was wonderful. Stunning views.
We did the full loop- coming back along the beach and LOVED it. Fair climb but it was gradual, we were quite surprised how high we were by the time we got to the top due to the lack of effort it required. Wonderful views! Once you are off the gravel as well you can walk in bare feet for almost half the walk! Just take the exit off the beach with all the wooden kiwis (we missed it) though it was an easy wander back to the car park. Reccomended!
Less than 1h taking the shortest loop, very enjoyable !
We chose the large loop for more than 2 hours of walking (via the beach). That's wonderful. The top view is amazing. To make absolutely. shorter ballad possible.
