So much to do! Bars, CMHOF, Hattie B's...Sommuch music and food! Great times!

Well, I was just here and I have made this hike many times since I was a child of 8. Done it in the fall/winter. So this time I went solo. Busy in the fall and parked at the Pine something trail parking lot.
The start of the Lookout trail is in the adjacent parking lot. Trail this way 450m. If you were thinking you'er all that and a bag of chips on hiking, the 450 m of trail to the start of the REAL trail will take the wind out of your sails...
I thought to myself I don't remember it being this challenging???
I have never been so happy to see a flat parking lot...

So the trail between the parking lots is BRUTAL! The rest of the trail is great. They state it is intermediate, but I would say it is on the higher side of Intermediate.
It is uphill for most of the trip in, good path, but still pretty steep. But worth it!
Have to say there were pretty senior, seniors who were giving it up and down, so good on them!

All in all, a good hike. If you are questioning your abilities, don't park at the Pine trail parking lot.

This is a fabulous park! First time visiting, but not our last... Nice sites, the beach is something you need to get used to due to rocks, but wear your water shoes and you will be fine! Water is like glass! And, if you really need a sandy bottom, it's a bit of a hike, but well worth it!

The water and forest is fabulous!!

Nice beach! We tried many and this was quite nice. Full disclosure, you should have water shoes as there are big rocks here, but the water is so clear you can easily make your way through the water! Nice beach!!

First time at Awenda! We will be back! Fabulous park and Wolf is a nice section!
