a week agoWe were at Cedars of God a few days ago (05/03/26). A very beautiful and atmospheric place. It’s hard to even describe how huge and old the cedars are, they look very impressive. It was quite cold, but it adds to the mood of the mountains. Now is probably not the best season for hiking, because there is a lot of snow and some paths are simply covered. We also went to eat at a restaurant next to the park with a very beautiful view of the mountains and the cedars themselves. And if you drive a little further, the lifts are still working there and you can ski or even snowmobile.
