Description
A short, easy trail through the forest with a brief peek into an open meadow. Follow the arrows from the parking lot and along the Red Loop/ Yellow Loop before breaking off from the Red Loop to turn back into the forest. Take a short jaunt along the meadow before heading back down into the forest and out into the parking area again. A great trail for new hikers or hikers with young children who are just learning about nature.
