Multiple loops wind through wooded areas, with elevations between 400 and 660 feet. The uneven surface and elevation gains make for a moderate to challenging hike, with scenic views and plenty of wildlife.
Going east from the parking lot provides access to the Blackledge River below the dam. Staying on the eastern side of the park leads to multiple junctions with Meshomasic State Forest, which eventually connects to Gay City State Park, whereas the northwestern loop brings you to the Blackledge Falls. For more details, see the Town's Blackledge Falls Park website.
