Great hike, a little of everything! Love the swings over looking the water. Good little workout! Love the scenery
I loved how shaded it was and all the greenery! It was fun to hike along side the creek and listen to all the birds. I also loved that the orange trail had several look out points with swinging benches.
A good trail but easy to get confused which color blaze to follow once you get deep into the woods and away from river.
Nice, easy hike that’s easy for the everyone to do. Even the kiddos can master this one. The creek was closed from the flooding when I went, but when you can access the creek, it’s fun to let the kids and dogs play around.
Beautiful trail. But, the best treat - - saw two pairs of American Bald Eagles doing a ballet overhead. When I got lower by the creek, one large Male Eagle was perched in a tree. What a site to behold! Fantastic hike and great way to spend a winter morning in late January.
Perfect trails to hike with your dog.
Well maintained trail. Moderately challenging run.
Love this park because it is never busy! The start/end is a bit steep, but you can drive down to the parking lot if that's an issue for you. Most people have their (well-behaved) dogs off leash.
great trails and signs, impossible to get lost
Nice trail for a quick hike. Went with our two young kids. Great morning activity, friendly passerbys.
Great hike!
Prospect gem...well maintained and managed. Outstanding trails to hike with your dog.
Excellent hike thru the woods that ends at the creek. Good place for my dog to romp around. Cross the creek (requires wading) - going toward the rapids. Follow up to an eye-catching waterfall!
Really nice park with good trails. My new favorite trail running training spot.
loved this hike it was the best hike I've been on that I've found so far it's amazing for wildlife absolutely beautiful the trails were clearly marked we took Blue Trail down and orange trail out it was just really calm no people really peaceful Birds everywhere even seen a crane eating fish was just an amazing adventure rock walls were cool it was just amazing I will go many many more times Trail was rated moderate but I didn't find it to be very hard at all
Unexpectedly beautiful park in the center of a prominent neighborhood. Park has great moderate trails and a beautiful creek! We hiked all 4trails (blue, green, red, orange), red and green dead end, but blue and orange are great there and backs. 5stars!

It was very nice change of pace from walking sidewalks. :)
