Insider tips

Bring insect repellent during the summer months as the wooded areas are prone to mosquitoes.

Stick to the established, worn-in dirt paths, as the undergrowth can be dense and uneven.

Visit during daylight hours only, as the park lacks extensive artificial illumination.

What to avoid

Do not attempt to traverse the park in light footwear after heavy rainfall as the paths become significantly muddy.

Etiquette

No specific dress code, but sturdy walking shoes are highly recommended due to unpaved, sometimes muddy trails.
