    First time here! We decided to go at 530am to see the sunrise but there was no sun. But the views were still absolutely breathtaking. Lots of early morning runners and trainers out. It was very refreshing and calming at the same time! Needed this!

    Great picturesque location with scenic views of nature, water, fancy house and mansions. Small hiking trail, good for evening walk.
