Nice boardwalk and love how it was bulid around nature. Very easy to follow paths as there are signs to guide you along the paths.

This isn't an actual hiking trail more so than a light walk. It's a nice place to walk, but there's not as much "nature" as one would expect -- especially when others litter the trail.
