The Rimwall Map

You will park off the Smith Dorien road and start on a trail through the trees. You start to climb right away and eventually you will get above the tree line where you will have a view across the valley. You will navigate your way up some rock and scree to the ridge to the final climb where you will have 360 degree views around you.
