PV is all about exploring the hinterlands. That's the purpose of open & wild landscapes. Come get lost & discover yourself... And start exploring for the 5 other wild tree swings with epic view points on the Peninsula !

as of recent terms ( june 2nd, 2021) the swing has been cut or someone broke it. still a very nice trail with a pretty view.

Thanks for verifying this, Jesse. I was out there today and nothing. Aside from the traffic noise, this is now one of my favorite PV hikes.

If I may add hiking UP from lower trail is a bit sketchy as cyclists come flying down the singletrack. They start in upper trail which is also called Dave's Trail.
