    So I'm a huge fan of the lost abandoned places in history, so when I heard there was an abandoned zoo, I had to go check it out. This location is on a tiny street that you might miss if you're going too fast on the highway, so be on the lookout for it. There is parking right next to the trail and off to the side near some bathrooms. They don't have toilet paper, by the way, so you should bring your own. The trails are not really "paved" but rather the remnants of old paved pathways, so they are rocky. There are a few other walking trails that take you up to the dam, but I didn't get that far up. We ran into a local who showed us where the largest pool in the USA was, too. The zoo, though, is a pile of rocks covered with tagging and broken wire gates. It's still really cool, but there is broken glass everywhere and gargantuan steps. You will get a workout climbing them. Bring a walking stick if you're not good with those. There are also some decaying structures, but be aware that the roofs are caving in, so be careful and use common sense.

    Pretty cool trail, but definitely come prepared to hike! I think it would be beginner friendly because I barely hike and I didn't croak, but it was still more of a walk than I anticipated. Make a day of it and stop by Cisco's downtown area after you hike.
