This is a very scenic and tranquil stop that combines meadows, hills, and mountain views. As you approach this spot, you'll be shaded by old oak trees, adding to the serene ambiance.

Hiking

Five oaks is a nice alternate route along the trail to the summit of Volcan Mountain. It is much tighter than the main trail with denser foliage.
