About This Trail

Imported description

The place is very interesting for the family. This is the location of the trail. This park was the first wilderness park in the United States. This happened in 1982. The park is full of large bamboo. The bamboo is special in the area. Most of the stalks are taller than 65 feet. It's a nice hike for the entire family because it's less than 1/2 mile. There are a few benches to sit on on the paved trail. Take the time to read the information at the park.
