    Start at Simla Crescent and head straight up the hill. The path is wide and there are plenty of well-constructed steps. Take water (you’ll probably need it) and you might need a light jacket or pullover if it is windy because it can be cold at the top. Took us 40 minutes to get to the mast from the bottom. It is a bit of a puff but well worth it. Enjoy.

    Great place to hike. It usually takes 30 to 40 minutes depending on pace.
