There are two loop walking tracks that wind through this beautiful stretch of land for park goers to enjoy a stroll through the trees and along the waterfront. 4 loops around the short loop make a mile and 3.5 around the long loop make a mile.

One of the most popular features of the new park is the public boat ramp and fishing pier. Fishing boats, kayakers, canoes, anglers and people just strolling the pier are a frequent sight here. The park is still in development and will be adding more pier fishing spots and overlooks to give more access to the waterway.
