It takes me about 15 minutes by car to get here and it is a synch to find. Parking is super ample. In fact there are three different parking lots. The trails are so well marked and plotted that there is almost no way to get lost. I admit at first try I got a bit side tracked, but then found my way in a few minutes. Be ready for friendly four legged furries coming over to say hello to you. I was actually pretty stoked about this, but some people are not so big on dogs. They do have signs posted about leashing your dog, which most people adhere to, so no problems there. Will post pics soon, with possible videos as well.

I took the perimeter trail down the hill and stumbled upon the hidden pond and little falls trail. It was super peaceful and beautiful there! I also saw tons of beautiful flowers and even spotted a butterfly. The sound of birds singing was lovely to hear during my walk. If you need a rest there are a few benches along the trail. I really enjoyed exploring this place and will be back to explore further.

There is also a "splash pad," which is supposed to be a water play area, but it is just a pile of pipes and pumps, and no progress has been made on it so far in 2023. Also, there has been no progress on the back entrance which is mostly all newly paved, except for the very bottom near the Hastings development, which is dirt and rough pavement. That is the closest and easiest way to enter the park from my neighborhood, but I don't think it is officially open for use yet. There are some newly created walking trails near OTB Hastings, and Mayview Cave (located down the hill by the big water tanks), but I warn you, this section of woods is loaded with ticks (even in the Winter months). Otherwise, if you like to play sports, there are baseball and soccer fields which seem to be in great shape. I have also witnessed the local Indian residents playing Cricket here on occasion (that's a fun game to watch). Cheers!

Parking is up at the top by the road, and it is limited to about 6 spaces, however I have always found a spot. There are a series of ponds which are used to remove iron from the water (from an old mine that existed on the property. In those ponds you are likely to see migrating water fowl. On my most recent visit, I observed 26 species of birds, including a rather rare Green-winged Teal. There is usually a very shy Great Blue Heron in the back pond, which you can see if you approach quietly. Charters Creek runs along the backside of the park, and there's a cute wooden bridge that connects you to Charters Park. In all, it's a beautiful escape from urban life. Check out OTB Hastings, which is a half mile down the road, for a perfect ending to your wildlife adventure.

There's a good bit of markings telling you where the trail is as well as a few signs advising no dogs aloud in the area. There is also a leash free area for the dogs as well. On average you'll spend about a hour or two hiking around all the trails to cover the whole area. I definitely recommend this place.

Still one of my favorite trails in the area (and it intersects with the Montour Trail providing even more options). P.S.

Our grandmother came to visit us from our home country, and she has difficulty digesting food. My mother-in-law wanted to take her for a walk, but it was very cold outside after a snowstorm. I simply wanted to bring her here so she could walk a little on the second floor. They were extremely rude when I explained that she had only been here for three days and that as soon as we received an email or documents, we would open the membership in her name. I said that later we would do the membership properly. They rudely demanded $50 just for entry. I explained that it was dark and cold outside and asked them to please let her walk a little just for today, but they were arrogant and rude right to my face. I would have understood if this had been explained respectfully and politely, but instead they behaved very rudely. This is a place that has been taking money out of my pocket for a year for nothing. That is why I canceled. I hope you understand that they do not care about your physical or mental health -- they only care about money.
