On Father’s Day we hiked 2.1 miles on this 33-acre forested area which was part of the Preble County Park District. We began with the Main Loop Trail walking across a long boardwalk which led us to a 200–300-year-old Bur Oak Tree whose tree trunk is over 14 feet in circumference. The trail had four small bridge crossings over a meandering creek. We then took the Wetlands Trail past Sandpiper Wetlands, a small pond full of frogs, birds and aquatic insects. Joining the Bicentennial Trail, the forest opened into a beautiful wheat field.
