The hike to get to the iconic Hamilton Pool is only a quarter-mile long. It’s pleasant at any time of the year, but it’s especially wonderful in the fall. It only takes about 30 minutes to hike from the parking lot to the pool and back, so if you’re short on time but want to immerse yourself in nature for a bit, this is the perfect hike for you.
