The summit of 3,960-foot (1,207 m) Tanalian Mountain is a beautiful — and challenging — destination for a day hike. Please remember that weather changes quickly here; park rangers advise that you should always be prepared with rain gear, even on seemingly clear days.
Once you pass the trail junction with the Tanalian Falls trail, you may find yourself wading through an overgrown trail — but don't despair. As you start clearing the treeline, you'll enjoy ever-more-impressive views over the surrounding area.
