There are rocky inclines with irregular surfaces. There are no railings or barriers of any kind. There is a lovely picnic grove on the upper grounds. There are four pavilions and several stationary grills. July 4th to August 24.
Light conditions are low in the rock area.
A wide angle lens is very useful. Panorama cameras photograph the breadth, but do not get the height of the rocks, and are not generally recommended. Video cameras that work well in low light capture the scenery best. You can 'pan', and film the depths and expanse. If you just want to hike the trail, and stop along the way to take photographs, and will not be exploring off-trail much, then you will only need about one hour.
