Rock Garden Trail

Description

To reach the Rock Garden trailhead, you must first start on the Original Trail, turn right onto the Battleship Rock Trail, and then after several minutes, you will see the Rock Garden trailhead which is in the forest just above the Hemlock Lodge. The Rock Garden Trail maintains a relatively flat grade and meanders around many sandstone rock boulders. Although this trail has many flat sections, there are some steep stairs along the way. This is an enjoyable walk and is one of the best routes on the park for bird watchers and plant lovers. Elevation change of 220 feet.
