Skyline trailhead
19713 Cabot Trail RdEasy flat hike through moose habitat with a rewarding view at the end.
Mountain trail hike. Very steep, not too long a few km forsure. AWESOME views at the top. Not for kids or those lacking good footwear... take your time and you will be glad you did.
Trail head is at the bottom of a hill just into an almost 180 degree turn, on your way into meat cove. there's only one road in so hard to miss... there is a little parking lot beside the trail head, just pull up the hill too the left as you approach the corner. Message me and I can drop you a pin via text or somthing like that to help you find it easily.
