multiple loops range from .5 miles to 2.5 miles or do them all for just under 5 miles Trail heads begin at parking lot of Wolcott Mill Metro park. You walk through forest, fields,and swampland. Much of the trail system follows the rivers and streams that run through the park. Mostly flat land with a few small inclines. Forest land has plenty of wildlife. Great for walking dogs or just going for a hike.
Took the 2 mile hike in early April and the second half of the trail was a muddy mess. About a 1/4 mile or so to the end of the trail, it was actually unpassable - looked like a lake and couldn't even see a trail anymore. Fortunately we could see the road from there and were able to cut through the woods to get back to the road.
Beautiful trail running. Went 4 miles total, had to circle around and repeat parts of it but I'd come here again
I like this park alot. Usually quiet and a fair amount of wildlife
Nice

beautiful day added to it but well kept paths. some markers down but very scenic and not overpopulated which add to my enjoyment!
