Official listing
Bring water shoes or sandals
The creek has designated spots for wading and swimming, though water is cold year-round and rocks require footwear.
Plan for multiple activities
Kids can play at nearby sports parks and playgrounds, walk the paved trail, explore the creek, and grab.
Arrive early on weekends
The trail gets crowded on Saturday and Sunday mornings, especially in spring and summer, so early arrival secures.
Visit in off-season for solitude
Winter and fall visits offer fewer crowds and a quieter experience with maintained trails and beautiful scenery.
Watch for bikes and dogs
The shared path has cyclists and dog walkers, so stay alert and keep children close, especially on narrow sections.
