No, Castle Rock is on the South side of the lake. The PCT comes over Onyx Summit, continues to head north until it eventually turns west after Baldwin Lake, and then it follows the north rim of the valley, on the north side of the lake.

Probably in the region of an hour if you have the app with the 16 interpretative locations with key information... less if you take the walk without the app. We had a party of 4: two seniors, a 3 year old and 40 year old and we took 1.5 hours with a lot of stops.

Creo q si se puede hacer despacio no creo q haya problema para la subida. Para la bajada tener cuidado especial.en resumen si se hace despacio y con calma se puede hacer. No es tan pesado el trail pero en caso que se canse se pueden regresar en cualquier punto. El trail es ideal para tomar muchas fotos.

Yep, but bring leashes, water, and some food for them. It’s a rough trail at parts so always be prepared to haul them back to the car if need be.
