I found this on All Trails app. which described it as a moderate hike 2.3 miles. We went in March, it was beautiful in the scenery. The trail was often very rutted and at times it was difficult to know if we were following a road or a trail, there were several tracks. I was very tired but happy to have finished this to the end.

Beautiful in the spring when weather is cooler and wildflowers are in bloom. Trail is a bit rutted at the beginning from water runoff. Popular with hikers, runners and mountain bikers. Not too crowded on weekdays.
