Parking at the trailhead is a bit difficult to find as the dirt road leading into it looks like a one lane driveway. I did the hike counterclockwise. Amazing lookout to the Waterloo district in the first 20-30 minutes of the trail with some steep-ish ascents. The rest of the trail is a nice wooded path but not spectacular in any way. Difficult to find markers at some crossroads so GPS is recommended. Overall an easy trail and worth the time for the lookout - great views.
