    The hike begins at the Ridge Trail next to the Ranger Station and Parking Lot. The Trail leads about 4 km upwards to the top of the ridge and further on through rock scramble to the summit and down to the Byrds Nest 1 Shelter. The natural vegetation is temperate broadleaf and mixed forest, predominantly, Appalachian oak.
