Caution, Donkey Crossing!

Tip of the Day....Next time you ride your donkey to the trail please be sure to and tie them up really well or they will end up wandering down Tunnel Rd.


 

The owners of the donkeys were notified immediately after spotting them wandering around and are now safe back at home.

Take a hike on the Sierra Club Trail, bike on the multiuse trails throughout the park(each section of trail has a different video), stroll along the memorial walk, take a flight above the park with a paraglider, ride in the cockpit of a RC racer, or take a lap around the BMX Course.
*And when you are all done experiencing the park you can go out and really visit this great park.
