Description
The trail is clearly defined, but does intersect with other small trails within the park, but even if you get side-tracked, the park is small enough that you'll end up near the interpretive center soon enough. The terrain is mostly flat with some gentle hills though the woods. Just off the trail are some old chimney structures.
History & Background
There is a trail marker for the Santa Fe Trail in the park
