This was the most leisurely hike of the day. We strolled through the park for about an hour, enjoying the shade, the creeks, and the enormous trees throughout the park.

Perhaps it was because this hike was after lunch, but even at the slow pace, it seemed to take a lot out of us!

This little park is very quiet and peaceful - - an easy-on-the-feet trail with only mild elevation. We got in 1.7 miles in a little less than an hour. ~ Joyce
