The Hiking
The initial hiking trail at Irene Gossin Nature Trail loops and is a half mile. From the meadow there is another half mile trail winding through the woods that offers additional sights and sounds with potential sightings of woodland animals. These trails loop back around to the main meadow. The trail is not stroller friendly however the terrain is easy.
For parking, be on the lookout for a wooden fence and a large White House. The driveway almost looks residential in this setting. There is a small gravel parking lot with a wooden fence surrounding it. Please Note: there are no bathrooms on site, however seasonal restrooms are available at Rothfuss Park directly across the street.
