The setting of this hike is in a quiet, C-shaped valley and offers a pleasant sense of isolation due to the tall bluffs surrounding it. This route rotates around the base of this headland on two of its sides, past river bottom sloughs, steep forested slopes, and sandstone cliffs before crossing the top of the ridge on its return. You will reach some beautiful vantage points atop the bluffs with great views of the forested ravines and river below. In addition, this is a notable bird-watching area, especially for waterfowl, warblers, great blue herons, gray catbirds, indigo bunting, and American restart warblers.
