THUNDERBIRD CONSERVATION PARK REVIEWS
Most amazing experience. This trail has different options for different difficulty levels so all can enjoy . Go in month of Aprils to see mountains all covered in beautiful mountain wild flowers. Must wear good shoes and take lot of water with you while hiking.
Absolutely gorgeous mountain to hike. Make sure you have plenty of water to drink, and if you bring your fur baby bring extra water for them to drink. Stay safe and enjoy your hiking adventures!
This is my favorite local hiking place. It is far enough away without being isolated. Parking is close to the trail heads, there's always someone around, but not so many people that they are in your space.

GRAND CANAL LINEAR PARK REVIEWS
Very nice parkway for walking or bike riding. There is also an option to walk/ride the asphalt next to the canal so no up and down. Lots of grass and trees and goes for miles.
Great biking or walking trails also lots of room to run and play field activities yeah. I just trek the trails or ride my bike only sat and people watched not one to really play.
My daughter and I love this little park. It's clean and well maintained. I went early this morning and enjoyed my meditation in the sun. It was so peaceful.

SKUNK CREEK LINEAR PARK REVIEWS
Nice quiet long paved trail that goes along through several neighboorhoods. We like it because our dogs are a little bit older and have a harder time on the mountains; this is still something different & outdoorsy for "dog adventures" but easier on our dogs knees
Great hiking and bike riding. They just cleaned out a lot of dead brush so it looks a little barren but the plants will grow back when summer ends. Bring your own water.
Scary vending machines behind bars. Used to be a joke with me n my wife because it was always closed a couple years ago. If u g2g its chill here
