    Hiking

    The shores of this lovely pond are full of moisture-loving plants such as willow, dock, and cattails. If you spend time here, you can expect to see lots of wildlife that inhabit the area, including blue herons, egrets, ring-necked ducks, mallards, and western pond turtles. A nature center overlooks the pond with exhibits, touchable wildlife, picnic tables, restrooms and drinking water open year-round.
