Surprise Rock Lookout is a beautiful spot with sweeping views across the forested valleys and distant ranges. The rocky outcrop creates a natural viewing platform where the landscape unexpectedly opens up after the sheltered forest sections. It’s one of the circuit’s standout vantage points, especially on clear days.
