Steady, uphill hike, but very enjoyable!
Dripping Springs Natural Area的点评
点评:My husband and I were looking for a not too strenuous hike and this fit the bill. We did have to stop a few times on the nice benches along the path, as the trail going in is uphill and the elevation increase can affect people differently. It is a wide gravel trail the whole way. The incline is slight but constant. No steep ledges or cliffs to climb. Return trip of course is much easier! Once you arrive near the destination there are lots of signs to read describing the history of the area. Whole hike (reading signs and taking photos) took us about 1 hour 45 minutes
One tip- stop by visitor center first for quick check in. They can give you some tips - as well as sunscreen and bug spray (so helpful!). We stopped in on our way back and spent time reading more about the nature & history.
This was very enjoyable hike. We started a bit later in the day. The park ranger suggested starting earlier to see more wildlife.
翻译:我和丈夫正在寻找不太费力的徒步旅行,而这条路线正好符合要求。我们确实不得不在沿途漂亮的长椅上停留几次,因为上山的路是上坡的,海拔的升高对人们的影响不同。这是一条宽阔的碎石路。坡度很小但恒定。没有陡峭的岩架或悬崖需要攀爬。回程当然要容易得多!到达目的地附近后,有很多标志可以阅读,描述该地区的历史。整个徒步旅行(阅读标志和拍照)花了我们大约 1 小时 45 分钟
一个小贴士 - 先在游客中心停下来快速办理入住手续。他们可以给你一些建议 - 以及防晒霜和杀虫剂(非常有用!)。我们在回来的路上停下来,花时间阅读更多关于自然和历史的信息。
这是一次非常愉快的徒步旅行。我们当天晚些时候出发。公园管理员建议早点出发,以便看到更多的野生动物。
