This is considered to be the easiest trail, looping around the Castle Crest Wildflower Garden. It starts from the East Rim Road, near the park's headquarters. It received its name because of a large stretch of meadows around which the trail circles and which is bursting with [[wildflower]]s in the springtime. The trail is about {{convert|1/2|mi|m}} before it reaches the wildflower meadow garden, from which other improvised routes depart. | This is considered to be the easiest trail, looping around the Castle Crest Wildflower Garden.
