CASTLEWOOD RIVER WALK and CREEK WALK

We won't be doing the hill this time. We'll walk from the parking lot down the road to the beach and take the trail along the river to the 200 steps. Then back the same way.

About 1 mile each way, all level dirt/sand trails.

We'll walk along the beach and let the dogs play at beginning and end. No other water access on this part of the trail, even though it follows the river the entire way.

Bring water for the dogs to drink.

CREEK: We can also walk down to the creek if anyone wants to do that, but your shoes will get wet on that part. You can skip this and go home, if you want to.

On leash at all times on the trail. No retractables, 6' max. There are usually quite a few other people and dogs on the trail. Also expect a few bikers, but they're usually pretty polite.

DRIVING DIRECTIONS:

Use your GPS to get to the park.

ONCE INSIDE THE PARK, come to the SECOND parking lot on left. It's past the big parking lot/playground and it has shaded spots to park.

There's a small pavilion and bathroom.

We hit the trail promptly at 10:00, so arrive a little early and be ready to go.
