If you’re looking for a chill walk with friends, this route is actually pretty dope. Part of the trail goes through a small section of the zoo, so you can literally spot some deer on the way kinda random but cool. There’s also a nice little pine forest vibe going on, and I swear it’s gonna look insanely good in spring or early autumn. Plus, there’s a café around the halfway point where you guys can grab a bite and just hang out.
