Tiki Trail - Questions

Hi.

I'm planning on walking Ben Lomond this week (or as far as I feel comfortable going on my own). I was planning on using the gondola but I want to start quite early (around 6) so I will need to take the Tiki Trail instead.

Some reviews suggest that the track is hard to follow and that getting lost is easy. Just wondering how realistic these reviews are. Are there trail markers at all? Is it relative easy to follow the trail?

Thanks!
