Walk where the clouds sit low

Three summer trails we walked this month, with maps and honest notes.

Summer issue

Three trails for long days

Cloud Forest Loop

Start before seven and the fog still hangs in the pines. About 9 km, mostly flat.

Old Root Path

Deep shade for hot afternoons. Slow ground, so good boots matter more than speed.

Trail tip

Start before the sun

Summer heat builds fast after ten. Pack a headlamp, leave at dawn and rest at the top.
