Nice Little Park With Lots Of Wildlife

Rocky Creek Park is located on Lake Somerville, very close to Yegua Creek Park.  The trail is supposed to be 5.3 miles long, but I only walked about half that distance.  Part of the problem is the trail map they provide you at the park entrance is HORRIBLE!  It is similar to a napkin drawing and is practically useless.  At the trailhead and along the trail there are display maps, EQUALLY USELESS!  Frankly, I have my doubts that there are 5.3 miles of trails in this park.  I admit that I most likely didn't walk all of the trails, but my track file shows I walked the main/long ones that comprise most of the distance.

Anyways, the trail itself is well-maintained and there is an abundance of wildlife in this park.  I saw rabbits, deer, caterpillars, butterflies, millipedes, and a number of birds, all in less than an hour.

I was told I was only allowed to bring my camera and a bottle of water with me on the hike.  They are pretty strict, but the trails also did not have any trash or litter whatsoever.
