Reviews
A peaceful, calming space to be mindful, take a breath, walk the labyrinth and many mindful moments.
Always a beautiful place to enjoy a walk, no matter the season. Long as you’re dressed properly for the weather, you’ll always enjoy walking through. We park at Cancer Survivors Park and sometimes walk towards the waterfall, leading to the shops above the stairs onto the main streets.
Most days, we walk the opposite way, taking the trail-way down by the park a few minutes from the zoo. Could be a short walk or a long walk. Depends on your pace.
Everyone is either walking their dog or riding their bikes. I like to go early when there aren’t too many bikes out so my child can run and view the scenery. Most days, depending on the time or event, some bikers forget they share space with runners and walkers, most of us being elderly or with children. They ride pretty fast, and what I don’t understand is that most of them don’t say anything when coming up on you.
So although I love walking here and always will, I think it could be a bit better if most bike riders were a little more cautious turning especially at those hard to see areas, or coming up on people or children who can’t get over as quickly as they ride.
Also, the community center (I’m not sure what that is exactly) is never open. So use the restroom before arriving or walk about a mile towards the restaurant above right before you get to the water fountain that leads to the streets. Restroom sign would be noticeable, except if the restaurant is packed outside, you’d have to walk through them to go towards the back where the elevator is. Bathrooms aren’t always clean. Restrooms inside the restaurant is for paying customers. Which is understandable.
Guess the biggest con is a lack of restrooms.
Overall, beautiful park and trails.
Beautiful, thoughtful, serene place to rest, walk, bike, or just sit and meditate! And, there are trails leading to the falls with many benches along the way.
Free parking and easy access to the trail along the river. No bathrooms but signs showing where and how far to public restrooms.
The park is great for those with limited mobility. Ramps, smooth surfaces, and railings offer everyone access to the entire park. It is a relaxing area with opportunities to sit and reflect. They also offer classes, support, and community.
