Small mixed-forest preserve with winding trails, boardwalks over wetlands, seasonal wildflowers, migrant songbirds and vivid fall color — ideal for intimate woodland, waterscape and bird photography. Visit spring for ephemerals and migration, fall for color, and early mornings for mist and active birds. Parking at the trailhead on Yuba Park Rd; no fee. Trails can be narrow/muddy; boardwalks improve accessibility but bring waterproof shoes.
