Need to Know

Park at the first parking lot on the right after entering the Tulley Gate. It is a small lot with only a few parking spots. The trailhead is at this parking lot.

Description

The loop along one of the marsh basins is a very smooth asphalt trail with plenty of signs explaining flora and natural features along the way.

Flora & Fauna

Great for birders. I didn't see wildlife beyond squirrels, but I'm sure the marsh basin along the northwest side of the loop would attract deer, fox, and wading birds.
