Short Nature Park Trail

Distance: 1.00 Mile Duration: 19 minutes

The Nature Trail at Yegua (pronounced Yay-wah) Creek Park is a short lollipop-shaped trail. There are numerous placards along the trail identifying different types of trees. The trail is well-marked with trail maps showing where you are.

Not much to say about the trail. It's your basic nature trail.

The park itself it rather scenic. It is one of several parks that is located on Lake Somerville. Wildflowers were in full bloom at the time I made this hike.
