Cape Split Trail Map

Although we believe that the journey is the destination, the end of this hike is the real reason to do it. The trail ends with a magnificent view of the Spires: rock formations that burst out of the ocean in tall, cylindrical fashion. You can enjoy a picnic lunch and lay on the edge of the cliffs, testing your comfort with vertigo...
