Description

Just east of the off-leash dog park (in the same parking lot), this wide trail can be taken in either direction.

If heading counter-clockwise (like mapped) the trail follows an longer easier ascent with a short steeper descent at the end. In the opposite, the trail is somewhat more difficult with a more difficult climb up front followed by a long gradual descent on the return. At the top, the trail is a little more rocky.

This is open space, so watch out for bikers, dogs (leashed), and horses. This is a popular dog area, so be prepared for a lot of traffic on weekends. Best to do this during the weekday.

Flora & Fauna

CAUTION: This is rattlesnake country, so keep an eye out. Also, know the difference between a bull snake and rattlesnake. Here is more information. Give snakes a wide berth, and DO NOT kill them. Call CR animal control if in doubt.
