Such a peaceful trail..open for walking/jogging and biking. Right at noon time too, you will feel calm and delightful with cooler temperature, lots of greenery, fragrance of woods and flowers, birds chirping and little squirrels running around. Well maintained and clean.
Very muddy and slippery after it rains. Otherwise nice walking trails!
Nice wide waking trail. The only reason not 5 stars is there’s no bathroom stops on the trail. The only bathroom is at the trailhead. Also you need to watch out for bikers speeding by you on the trail.
Beautiful and well-maintained trailhead! The trail is smooth, clean, and great for walking, running, or biking. It feels peaceful and safe, with plenty of parking and clean restrooms. The greenery around makes it even more relaxing. Everything is well-marked and easy to navigate.
