Description
This is a beautiful little nature trail. It starts in the Birdsong neighborhood, and there is a small gravel lot with parking. There is a large open field surrounded by paved paths, and there are sometimes folks playing soccer or frisbee in the large field. The hike itself goes over wooden boardwalks, dirt path, and some gravel. It's a quiet, calm, and relaxing hike! The only downside is that I wish it was longer! I like doubling back at the end to make it a longer outing.
