Did the quick loop of A'a Trail across the street first, then the full loop of Lenox. The signage on site says 1.6 miles and approximate time 1.5 hours. I couldn't invent places to hike to get to 1.6 miles and I'd have to take a nap to make it take 1.5 hours! I also found the footing to be much better than expected. I don't know if the NPS has compacted the cinders or just use over time has improved them, but at no point did I slip/slide, or "two steps forward, one step back". It was as easy as you would expect any national park tourist trail to be. Good views too.
