Description

The Main Pond Trail starts off crossing a bridge and is a sandy, small pebbled track taking you through grassy areas. You then come out by the pond and have a little bit of a step up here and there, go through some oak forest, and eventually you'll connect with the Boulder Path.

Flora & Fauna

Post and blackjack oak, birds, lizards, and dragonflies can be found here.
