Had a couple great walks. Trails were very well maintained and spacious. It was very easy to social distance and enjoy my walk. I walked to the north end of that section of trail and back.

Great place for a walk or a run! The paths are dirt and gravel, so it gets a little muddy after rain, but its not so bad that we got all dirty. The trail goes for a couple miles, so you can get a good hike or run in and see plenty of fresh views along the way. Worth the stop. Its beautiful!
