Timeline
17:33
Order a craft cocktail at the rooftop bar. The Pumphouse sits right on the water, so you will have a clear view of the western sky while you settle in.
18:18
Walk the trails at the Rock Hill Outdoor Center. The complex offers open spaces and hiking paths that face west, giving you a broad, unobstructed view of the horizon as the light begins to fade.
18:48
Watch the sun dip below the western horizon. The golden light ends shortly after sunset, so stay for the lingering color in the sky.
19:33
End the evening with a small plate and a glass of wine at Grapevine Café. It is a cozy spot just a short walk away where you can decompress after the walk.
Local tip
The walk from the Outdoor Center to the café is short but involves some elevation changes on the trails. Wear comfortable shoes.
