Route Description for Farrel-McWhirter Park and Juel Park Trail

The trail that connects Farrel-McWhirter Park and Juel Park is an easy, meandering walk through the lush woods of these two scenic parks. It’s a pleasant outing on foot but watch for the horse traffic that frequents the park and remember to give equestrians the right of way wherever possible.

Begin near the community gardens, walking down to cross Juel Creek. The trail splits where it approaches Farrel-McWhirter Park, and you can go either way. The route loops around the perimeter of the park, so as long as you stay to the far outside trail, you’ll make it around.
