Had a really nice morning hike here with my uncle! It’s a relatively easy trail with several rest areas and optional detours if you’re up for more of a challenge. We were lucky to have perfect weather and only a few people around when we went. The views were lovely too! Such a great outdoor activity option in the area.

A beautiful spot for a morning hike! As an outdoor lover, I really enjoyed being surrounded by nature with friends and family. It was my first visit, and although some trails were quite hilly, I managed to finish the hike comfortably, even in running shoes, which I thought would be fine. I’ll definitely be back with proper trail shoes next time!

Lovely Park a few somewhat challenging climbs but not too bad. Plenty parking, public bathrooms, great paths, well kept.

MAJOR TICK ALERT!!!! Went back to hike and came home with a tick attached to my ankle and an hour later another one crawling out of my hamper. ____________________________ A very nice park with multiple entrances and lots of trails. Some trails are bike friendly and all trails are dog -friendly (on leash). Enjoy the views and the refreshing air.
