The stuff they HATE is stuff like Liberty -- very boring for kids until you get to the top.

Just a green tunnel? That's the description in the WMG and for Greenleaf Trail, too. Sometimes those are fun, especially on a rainy day, but on a sunny day you need a trail with occasional views to keep you motivated. Caps Ridge is great for that - it gets above treeline in only a mile.
