    Tips

    Hiking

    Although you get some nice views from the top of Cardiff Peak, the wildflowers strewn all along the way are the real star attraction here. There is some scrambling involved to reach the peak, but it's imminently doable for anyone who's fairly comfortable with non-technical rock climbing.
