It's a good 30 minute walk to Bike Emporium but from there you can hop right on the green belt bike path to enjoy the day. Or ride down along the lake.

Parks & Nature
Take a Lyft to get dropped off at the bottom of the access road (otherwise you might find yourself having to make an extra hike from your car to the road). Do not underestimate the heat... this is a wonderful hike but dangerous if you're not prepared. Start early (early-early) and take plenty of water.
