We are pleased to announce the completion of the boardwalk repairs.Significant wood rot created safety hazards for park visitors. Renovations included replacing top handrails, walking surfaces on the bridge and boardwalks, as well as structural components. New concrete walkways at the north trailhead bridge and new doggy waste stations were also installed.More upgrades are in the works!
Over a mile of trails wind through upland mixed forest and slope forest, tracing the course of Hogtown Creek. A scenic overlook provides visitors a view of the confluence of Glen Springs Run and Hogtown Creek. Clear water from Glen Springs sharply contrasts the tannic water of Hogtown Creek. Birds, gray squirrels, and other urban wildlife are abundant in the park. The kids will enjoy the colorful playground. Walk or jog the scenic trails, picnic under the pavilion, and breathe it all in while resting on a quiet bench. The kids will enjoy the colorful playground. Dogs on leashes are welcome.
Parking is provided at the Elks Lodge located at 2424 NW 23rd Boulevard.
