"It’s a great area to walk a dog and get some running in. You’re technically not allowed to have dogs off leash, but if your dog is well trained and you keep an eye out for other dogs, in practice it doesn’t seem to be a problem."

"Hidden gem! I drove pass the trail entrance a couple times, but never had a chance to explore the area until now. The commute is easy: you can take the 41 bus and it will bring you to the trail entrance on Genesee or you can park in the local parking and take a few minutes walk. The trail is a combination of tree, shrubs, creek, sunshine and fresh air. It will make a good workout or relaxation spot for you and your family"
