i recommend starting the trail early, around 8 am. you'll dodge the midday heat and crowds, plus those morning views are stunning.

I recommend getting a day pass for the park instead of individual rides; it saves you money and you can hit the trails as many times as you want. Plus, you'll want all day to explore!

Consider packing snacks and plenty of water. I forgot mine and ended up spending too much at the café—those trail rides work up an appetite!
