Great short hike
Great hike!
Nice place for an easy hike.
A great place to walk and enjoy the woods and river.
A great walk with a short walking bridge over the river. The early part of the trail is from an old rail line, so very flat and in good shape. We often go here during the months with worse weather, since the trail is in good shape.
