We have visited twice so far and have really enjoyed the beauty of the trails and the nature that surrounds them. The trails are mostly unmarked once you start out on one so you just have to wander until you get the lay of the land. We felt like we had a better idea of where we were the second time than we did the first even though we were on mostly new trails.
