Planned to see the are museum but couldn't afford it, but the trails are nice.  Kind of tough to find the "trailhead"...as you walk in you go a ways it will be on your right side, and head off to the right.  Not a long path but nice for what it is.

Beautiful walk

i like to come here on quiet days and imagine that it's the 1930's and i live in that nice house and have this lovely private path to walk along towards the folly. then i go home and do the laundry.

Relaxing and fun
