The book says it has a 1.2 mile trial to the summit (I think it is slightly further!), about half way it gets very steep, but it does have hand rails to grab hold of on the very steep bits. At the top you will see a great view of the city. We took 3 hrs for the return trial. We took it easy and climbed slowly.
