About This Trail

Imported description

The trail is a loop around a peninsula. It is crowded but there is a great playground and picnic areas for the family to enjoy. The rest of the hill is very gentle. The park has sports fields, a boat ramp, picnic pavilions, and a splash pad. This is the place to go for a quick run while the kids are playing.
