A nice hike. Could tell hogs were there so aptly named.
A beautiful trail, it's a loop with a one mile out and back spur. The trail is hard packed and mostly high and dry. There are a number of shelters along the route with benches to enjoy the views. Lots of birds, herons, egrets and we saw a group of four northern harriers.
Such a nice, quiet place to walk. If you get here early enough, around sunrise, you may even see some deer! You can definitely hear the wildlife out off the trail. An extension of the trail, the Promontory Trail, goes along a levee out into the open marshlands for an extra mile one-way. I strongly suggest you go the extra mile.
Nice secluded trail mostly shaded. 3 mile loop impossible to get lost on. Nice flat trail.
Very nice trail, but beware, the boardwalks get very slippery when wet, particularly the shaded areas.
