Description
Starting from the playground at the bottom of the road, start up the hill and quickly drop into the woods to the left of the road. Wind your way up through the woods until you reach the picnic area. Between the pavilions, the trail will go back into the woods before emerging by Pirate's Cove. Keep to the left of the cove, and return to the woods. The trail will be narrow here, but is well marked so just look for the blazes. At the bottom of the hill, you'll return to the playground on the other side of a clearing.
