This is a part of the Ice Age National Scenic Trail. The trail is fairly steep until you crest the bluff and has lots of rough-cut stone steps that help with footing. You can park a few hundred feet east from the trailhead along S. Lake Road and hike up West Bluff to Cleopatra's Needle and overlooks of Devil's Lake.

This is a part of the Ice Age National Scenic Trail. The trail is fairly steep until you crest the bluff and has lots of rough-cut stone steps that help with footing and makes the trail a fun quad buster. You can park a few hundred feet east from the trailhead along S. Lake Road and run up West Bluff to Cleopatra's Needle and overlooks of Devil's Lake.
