Description:
From the park offices we will check the peony field to see if they started blooming then go around the beautiful and scenic Clopper lake shore trail and a bit of Seneca Creek Greenway Trail along Seneca Creek on our way back.
We will hike on natural trails (expect some rocks and roots) and on a mowed field to see the peonies.

Here is more information about the Schwartz Peony Garden and peony field - they have been blooming earlier these past years:
