California Poppies in bloom

The mighty Blue Oaks adorned in their full spring bloom are imposing figures that dominate portions of the landscape as fields of California Poppies and other colorful wildflowers set the fields ablaze in color. Goats are an annual favorite for all ages that offer entertainment as they help mitigate fire risk. Chill creekside under the cool canopy of trees as the hot summer sun reaches its peak as egrets warily standby and keep watch.

For full day adventures, Nugget Market and Raley’s One shopping centers are a short distance from the trail for a quick lunch and beverage stop. Timber Creek in Sun City is slightly further, but offers outdoor dining and easy access with bike racks. Have a cold one while watching golfers practice their swings under the sun is fun!
