Nice trial and awesome views. Start out from Bridalveil campgrounds and in early season, this route is lush with wildflowers of every variety, and the fishing at Royal Arch Lake is excellent. The generally gentle grades of the trail make this a fine early-season choice for out-of-shape hikers.... Which happens...

Plenty of nice flat area to chose from to setup your site and you'll probably be under the tree cover all by yourself.
