I came here almost daily for my walk. I Love the scents that is coming from the pine trees, some wild plants and flowers. There are colored markers on the trees to guide you where to go on the trail so you won’t get lost. I’ve used my gps too to show me where I am. I love how the natural woods and all the trails changes from throughout the seasons. When I see trash along the way, I picked them up and put them in trash barrels. I wish more people would do that. I’ve seen people jog in the woods, but please be careful of the smaller rocks that roll under your feet. I’ve almost slipped on many. Maybe it’s my flat shoe. Some older people walk with walking sticks. My favorite trails is the ‘scenic’ route and the ‘education’ route.

This place is a hidden gem. It is definitely in our top 3 best trails so far. Starting in the main parking area we stayed in an outer loop course started heading north on blue to yellow Education and head west. Then white old field trail, orange Sassafras, then back to outer red, pink Strock trail, complete purple loop, do not skip the Saddleback trail. Back to red all the way around to green.
