Trail Tips

Travel on Durable Surfaces
If your bike tires make an indent on the trail surface, it is too wet to ride. Come back when the trails have dried out.

Trailhead Information

Three trailheads exist to enter the trail system:

Venus Avenue: Park near the cul-du-sac and find the trail heading straight out the far end.

Sunset Drive: Park after passing Meridian Street and walk through the gap in the fence to find the boardwalk trails.

Red Maple Lane: Go around the housing complex and park in the north corner by the raised garden beds. Walk through an opening in the fence to get on the trail system.
