With our friends newborn, our options were very limited. This was a nice big park but very expensive if you don’t have kids. (that inteact with their surroundings).
There were some nice piknik places and games for the kids… but at 8$/adult and 5$/child, the price is pretty high for a piknik and stoll in the woods (next to the highway).
Of course we had fun and the park is well maintained and pretty nice. It felt good to get moving but we won’t be going back. There is no challenge for hikers. As for pikniks, there are many nice free places or less expensive places to go to.
The waterfalls were pretty nice and we were able to eat on a big rock next to the water. Don’t worry, baby’s stroller was well locked and didn’t fall in the water.
Next time we take baby out, we will wrap her up around her mom and dad and will go on some more interesting hikes.
Happy Hiking
The path goes along the falls/rapids
A wooden walkpath takes you through the swamp.
There is a pond you can walk around… nothing impressive but at least you’re out of the house
