About Park Avenue Trail
The trail begins on pavement at the Park Avenue viewpoint and then continues steeply downhill into a dramatic canyon, offering close-up views of tall sandstone walls and canyon scenery. Beyond the paved viewpoint the route is rocky and uneven with rock steps and ledges; the Courthouse Towers are visible toward the north end. Signs are present along the trail.
