Monty's trail rating system

Assessing the right hike for you can enhance your experience out on the trail. 

  • Level I: Leisurely stroll. Participants at this level will be exercising by walking a couple of miles, stretching your legs and looking to get outdoors for fresh air and sunshine! Trail consists of flat or gradual terrain and typically a paved or groomed surface. 
  • Level II: Moderate exercise. Explore nature off the beaten path by stepping over trail obstacles with root and rock outcroppings, climb and descend moderate uneven terrain, and know your personal limitations. Walking shoes with a cleaved sole are required for this level hike.
  • Level III: Heart pumping exercise. Participants in good physical condition capable of maneuvering rough, uneven terrain along with elevation gains; loose surface material should be expected. High top hiking boots or a shoe with ankle support and cleaved sole is required for this level hike.
