About This Trail

This easy loop follows Clear Creek. The trail is paved on the north side of the river, and unpaved on the south side. There is a trail behind the pond that leads to West Lake. The trail is a little less used by people. It has a nice boardwalk and bird viewing blind that let's you see all the birds. If you're lucky, you can see wild cormorants on the small island in Tabor Lake. People come here for birdwatching and fishing. You can take one of the bridges to either side of the river.
