Wild Life Pairie Park Floodplain Trail
The pool at the Riverplex was closed when I went to swim; I took advantage of the pretty day to hike 4-4.5 easy miles at Wildlife Prairie Park instead. This was an “injury recovery” level effort; no pain but I took it very easy.
I took several photos of the Flood Plain Trail; all of them are here.

Here is the start.

There are some minor hills.

Most of it is grass like this.

There are good water views in the latter third of the trail.

Here is the pond section.

This side trail goes to some cabins that you can reserve for an evening. Deep in the trail you can see a deer (it is somewhat far away but it is standing in the middle of the trail)
