Some of the trails are paved and some are wood chips. Some are a little hilly, but not too extreme. There are educational boards throughout the trails that my kids love stopping and reading. There is a lot of shade and nature, but the sounds of the interstate can sometimes take away from that some.
Didn't know how beautiful this nature park really was til I got there..... simply breathtaking!!!🤗🤗🤗💯 Enjoy the scenery! …
The walking trails are short and hilly in places. Most of them are in the shade and lined with a number of different trees and perennials which were all labeled at one point, but several of the placards were missing. Some of the trails are concrete sidewalks and others are covered in woods chips, which provides a softer but uneven surface. Apparently there are a lot of Kodak moments here, as there were a number families taking pictures.
We took Pepper our Pomeranian to the OPPD Arboretum on a beautiful Shabbat afternoon in February! Pepper made some friends while we enjoyed the sunshine and cool weather (52 degrees)! Looking forward to visiting when the flowers are in bloom!
Who would ever expect that an OPPD power substation could be a beautiful Arboretum area? They did it. And you can learn about the trees you should and should not plant near your power lines as you walk the scenic trails. Check the handicap access. One path has a bit of a challenge with handicap accessibility.
