Do you ever give up on something before you even start? Because you’ve heard from others that the spot isn’t great? Or that it’s not wild enough or a “real hike” or doesn’t live up to some standard that you eventually realize you don’t even care about?

I like to try something at least once myself before I make up my mind. So, no matter what you’ve heard about today’s Tiny Hike I encourage you to try it out.

Why it might be worth exploring:

  • It’s off-street so you don’t have to worry about traffic.

  • For some reason, it’s never really that busy or crowded.

  • If you are quiet, you can hear so many small songbirds and see hummingbirds zooming from treetop to treetop.

  • My overwhelming memory of this tiny hike in spring will be brilliant, happy yellow flowers.

  • It’s free with no parking fees.

  • You can take your stroller.

  • There are restroom stops along the way.

Trail Guide #31 is right beyond the paywall below! If you’re not already subscribed, I’m warmly inviting you to upgrade to become a Tiny Hiker!
