This is a fantastic trail that’s suitable for either an Ergo or a BOB. Â A non-off-road stroller could likely also do the walk, particularly in the dry season.
The trail is approximately 1.6 miles each way; it’s a there-and-back route, not a loop. Â With an Ergo, one could make a loop with some of the other trails at the park, but they were too steep to use the BOB (they’re ostensibly mountain bike trails).

Some sections are a little bit rocky (not noticeable at all with the BOB):
