3The Fairyland Loop Hike
Want a longer hike? This one is a total of eight miles. The elevation gain is almost 2,300 feet. It’s rated “strenuous” due to the elevation and distance.
You can begin the trek from either Fairyland or Sunrise Point but starting at the latter will add more distance. You could also take a quick detour to Tower Bridge, although it could also serve as a separate hike.
