| Hike Summary: | This is just amazing because you don't even have to leave town to enjoy and it is a perfect location for hiking, jogging, fishing, cross country skiing and picnicking. There is an extensive trail and pathway system providing for both summer and winter uses. I have been to this park for events like wedding, graduations and of course...hiking! It is truly a delight because you feel so far away from the hustle and bustle of the city. It is a busy area for obvious reasons but that is no reason to not go. There is plenty to do and the whole family can enjoy. |
