The park offers several trails ranging from easy to difficult in terrain difficulty. Most are of moderate difficulty which means that there may be simple creek crossings and uneven terrain but no prolonged or steep changes in elevation. Two of our moderate trails also offer wayside signs that help you interpret your surroundings and the history of the area. Both Channel Cat and Lost Barr trails are laid out on a loop fashion to bring you back to your starting place.
