Location Information
Historically this trail was famous for the view of the city gained by climbing an iron stairway to the top of St. Peter's Dome. Vandals dismantled this stairway, which makes it very difficult for hikers to reach the overlook. The trail is less than 1 mile long with no views from the path.
