Great hike for intermediate and up. The harder hike is the entrance from Tzouhalem Rd. Parking in front of the White Church and walk over to the yellow barrier and walk to the right. Or Drive to the other side of the Mountain, have not hiked the easy side but I think you can park halfway up. Take water and snacks if you do other intermediate. It can get steep, most dogs are leashed as there are cliffs near by at the top.
