Depends on your fitness level and how much you want to explore. We were fast walkers (overtook 5 groups of people before us) but spent a fair amount of time taking photos when we reached the top (about half an hour). The total was around 1.5 hr. (on our way back, we went past the other side which was a bit longer so I think you can do it in 1 hr if you go up and down the same way).
Q:
how much does it takes to go and come back from the parking lot?
A:
My wife and I just went up today. It took her 1.5 hours return at 72 and not a hill walker. For me it is 1.25 hours.

A:
