  • Non-paved trails are strictly for pedestrians, and mountain bikes are not permitted.

  • Rock climbing is prohibited, and visitors should leave the park as they found it.

  • Due to the uneven ground and steep trails, it’s best to come prepared with sturdy shoes with good grip, as well as water and comfortable layers.

  • A ranger station is located at College Woods, and rangers are on-site from morning to late afternoon on weekdays.
