Green Lakes Perimeter Trail reviews
4My family loves running here. Depending on the trail you chose the hike can vary in difficulty from easy to hard. There are not trash cans so you need to pack everything out, be prepared. You can spend anywhere from an hour to 4 depending on trails you choose.
Well marked, and well maintained trail. Very beautiful foliage all along the trail. I would recommend bug spray and good coverage, if you are prone to bug bites.
This trail head is nice because it opens up a less popular side of green lakes. The trails from here do eventually connect to the main lake trails, but they also open up parts of the park that are unseen by most visitors. If you've never gone to Green Lakes, go to the main entrance. But if you have visited Green Lakes before and you're looking for something new visit some of the trails that start here.
I will say the views aren't as spectacular as the lake views you get in the park, but if you're looking for something different visit this trail head.
Also be weary that there aren't that many parking spaces so it could very well be full when you arrive.
Great hike. Just be careful of the marker's on the trail, they do not say perimeter trail.
