Nice area and very nice park with many different areas to walk and or hike through. Pretty during my walk and winter views. Love to see this spot in the summer and fall views so will return again.

Beautiful areas and trails all the way through. Perfect day and blue skies in February 2021 made for the best and first trip through this area. All you can hear is the water in areas from Taylor Creek moving. Down so low from far above made for a very pleasant walk, no cold winds and just the sun shining on your face. Perfect areas for families, pets and children.
Everyone keeping social distance and following covid-19 rules. All the trails and areas are wide enough for everyone.
My very first time hiking this area and photography was amazing in every direction. Everyone very friendly and I assume they are all locals from this area. Will be back again and love to see it during the summer and fall seasons.
Very interesting area and first time here today. Very close to home and had no idea of the area and even Beechwood Drive winding down to Crothers Woods. Beautiful day spent hiking and it was so quite except going the other way and DVP noise but really nice spot and with parking. Looks like someone has been living here as they built a lean to in front of the firepit. And a lot of tracks going under. Possibly kids from the area. Hopes it doesn't get destroyed.

Amazing area and trails. Love all of the sights and although the trails can be challenging it's worth the trip just for the views. You can enter from Beechwood Drive and if the gate is open across the road there's parking at the bottom. We hiked in two different directions from the Beechwood and Crothers Woods sign and it was so nice out. Nice to see the Don River frozen over and interesting as it never seems to freeze over closer to the city.
Lots of ducks along the way and they seem to enjoy sitting on the ice and jumping into the water occasionally. Great area for families, children and we even passed a family with a 4x4 stroller.
Many bikes passing us even though the trails were covered in snow. People jogging, walking and bird watchers. Many dogs out enjoying time with there humans. Overall very interesting area and nice sights.

Amazing area for hiking and or biking above the Don River areas. Many trails to choose from and today we decided on the beginner trail as we had been hiking other areas. This took around 30 to 45 minutes and very nice. Take a photo of the map on the way in after you cross the bridge over the Don River. The trails branch off and can be confusing as we kept seeing the same groups pass us but they didn't ask for directions. We used Google Maps to follow the right trail.
Perfect spot for anyone, some upgrades and down grades but wear the proper footwear for snow covered trails. Some were enjoying mountain bikes and others walking the family dogs. We will be back again and try a different trail.
