This nature reserve is truly a beautiful area as well as a hidden gem. It has so much to offer bike trails and walking paths. I encountered over 10 deer in the tall grassy area even seen a couple of newborn fawns. I’m planning on making this my weekend hiking spot indefinitely.

Such a nice place to jog, bike or just walk in. For a section you walk along the river which is extra nice. It’s a flat paved path so an easy one.

Mostly a paved trail for walking and bike riding. The location does have some picnic tables. A small river flows through the trail along with bridges to cross streets. Not much greenery to look at. The woods seem very thinned out. A good place for a quiet walk but not an interesting looking place. Plenty of parking and not far off the highway.

Miami Woods is easy to go and there are plenty of parking lot. You can biking there, walking or jogging. The trail are paved trail and natural trail. Also the trail along the river. There is a place with the tables, chairs and roof for you to sit and have something to eat. There is a temporary toilet.
The weather is so nice there easy breezy there with fresh air.
A lot of flowers ^^
Good place for the rest and running around.
