Peaceful place to walk up a small mountain. Not too many people, fairly quiet, with a decent variety of terrains. Decent pond to relax at, good amount of trails that you can get lost in as they cross over in some places. You can easily spend a few hours here without getting bored. Great for a local place without going too far. Plenty of parking. As with any hiking trip, bring appropriate shoes.

Great small little area with plenty of hiking trails. There are under 10 miles of trails, with a great map at the start to help guide you, including ones you can take with you. There are color coded markers to guide you as your hike as well, as well as some numbers at major intersections as markers. Definitely a good local place to wander through the woods, maybe climb on some rocks.
