Route Description for Peabody Creek Trail
Peabody Creek Trail follows and crosses Peabody Creek. It’s a moderate trail with spread-out elevation gain. You can hike this as an out and back or connect to Hurricane Ridge Road as a loop. While there might be some road noise on the trail, it’s a great forest walk for those in the city.
Some sections of the trail are narrow, so take care especially if you have your dog with you.
Begin from beside the visitor center in the parking lot. You’ll take Peabody Creek Loop, staying left to take the trail next to the creek. Enjoy the tall fir and the mosses as you walk alongside the water.
The route bends away from Peabody Creek just after the smaller stream crossing, drawing nearer to Hurricane Ridge Road. You’ll approach the creek again just before the trail ends at the junction with the road. Either turn back and retrace your steps or take Hurricane Ridge Road back to the visitor center to complete your hike.
