With close to 1,000 acres and a large network of trails, hikers can find a route that suites their needs. Head down to the river, use the picnic area, and enjoy interesting views.

REMEMBER: Follow basic hiking guidelines: Wear good shoes, bring water and simple first aid kit, plus a copy/phone photo of trail map. Check the weather ahead of time, if you go alone, let others know where/when you’re going. All participation is at your own risk. Find a nearby restaurant or ice cream shop to reward yourself after your hike!
