Produced by the fine folks at Morrisey Productions, this video details the hiking options at the iconic Ecola State Park. Please note that as of February 2022, the park is still temporarily closed to repair a sinkhole on Ecola Park Road. So please check before you go. Until the reopening, check this out!
