The whole trip is about 5.5 miles and it is on the challenging side because of the staircases. Overall if you take it at your own pace I believe most people could enjoy this hike. The lush landscape is worth the periods of burning thighs as you climb nearly 3,000 steps total on this trip.
The whole hike has a fairytale vibe and the scenery is absolutely breathtaking…which is funny since the natural staircases do the same thing!
If you can, plan to do your hike in the evening so you can catch a stellar view of the Texas sunset. It’w worth every step along the way to see those magical painted colors from such a high elevation! You’ll forget you are in the middle of a big city.
By the time you are done with your hike you’ll be ready for some leftovers and feeling great about getting out there and burning some calories. The best part is you can do it as a family and make it part of a new tradition for your Thanksgiving celebration!
