Distance: 1 mile point to point trail

Difficulty: Fairly Easy

Details: Pickle Creek Trail is a beautiful relaxing trail that runs alongside Pickle Creek. There are lots of access points to get right down beside the creek and you can hear the water running all along your hike. There are lots of wildflowers and interesting plants along the trail, and several spots along the creek with large rocks to relax on and listen to nature at its fines. This trail is a little rocky in spots, but overall a good hike for families.
