Wind Ridge Trail- 8km round trip and 400m of elevation gain. It is a challenging beginner Or a easy intermediate- be prepared for some elevation gain. We are doing Wind Ridge trail just to the lookout point. Lots of variety- some nice streams and bridges at the start in a forested area, then it opens up into a beautiful meadow with lots of wildflowers. You get your elevation all in the last 1.5 km to the top; It’s a steady incline, but the views at the end are SO worth it. As we hit the top of the view point you are surrounded by stunning views !
We are not doing any scrambling or the ridge climb. This hike is very possible for a beginner hiker.
