This is a trail outing, distinct from the managed botanical gardens nearby. Trees and changing elevation provide a different pace from the coast, but route choice matters: a short forest wander can become a demanding climb. Use current park guidance and allow enough daylight for the way back.
What to look for

Transitions from trees to more open hillside
