Great trail for a fall hike. The steepest part is the downhill from the trailhead. Everything else…read moreis a series of gradual inclines and looping trails. Go left after crossing the swinging bridge and you'll come to the water treatment plant. The trail is well marked. I was able to see where I was on my iPhone map the whole time. The bridge is a great photo op spot.

I wish it a bit longer of a path. But very kid-friendly. Path is well marked. Lots of fun things to…read moresee and interesting parts of the path. An old mine to the right of the trail. A wobbly suspension bridge (gulp). Lots of shade! Which was welcome on a very hot day. The water below looked lovely, but I didn't want to guide my 7-year old down there and get stuck. Definitely will need a shower after this hike! The tree canopy is delightful.

We'll usually get down to purdon crossing around 11am and spend the entire afternoon enjoying the sun, shade where we can find it or make it and swimming. We have meet some really great single guys and couples there to share our picnic with, so if you ever see us on the river don't be shy and say Hi.

Stayed at the campground over Fourth of July. There are 16 campsites on a first come, first serve…read morebasis.. we were unlucky because all the campsites were taken when we got there but we managed to claim one for the next day! Parking lot pimped it our first night- we were a group of 12 with 3 dogs so we didn't have many options. Really nice campground, and seems to be somewhat maintained and clean opposed to other campgrounds I've gone to in the past. The river itself is beautiful!! We walked down to the nude beach part- the hike to get down is fairly easy, coming from one of the most inexperienced and scared hikers ever. It's definitely a busier part of the river but there's plenty of room to not be in anyone's way. The current wasn't too strong and was shallow enough to walk around in, for the most part.

Save your time & money instead of wasting it attending the water aerobics class. There's nothing…read moreaerobic about standing around in the pool waving your arms around like it's ballet class. Each year the quality of the class gets worse. I'm out for 2025's morning class until they get a real instructor. It's too bad since the pool is lovely. The evening class might be the saving grace by virtue of the young lifeguards who teach at 6pm.

It's a small park, but nice and clean…read more It has a pond, picnic tables, and a baseball field. I was surprised we didn't see any human trash around. Not even in the pond. If you're lucky you'll see jays, robins, wood ducks, mallard ducks, swallows, hawks, geese, herons, and hummingbirds. You might also see turtles and fish. My man heard frogs at night, but we didn't see them in the daytime. There are a few mushrooms on the ground. We stayed in a shipping container that was turned into a nice AirBnB across the street from this park. It has a convenient trail to downtown Nevada City. If we brought the kids, I would have them play here. Maybe kick a ball around or chase each other. There's no playground structure, so you'd have to be creative to play here.
