Overview
While this little trail system is right next to the expressway, don't let that deter you. The sound of passing cars is almost instantly hidden by the flowing creek and the amazing Postcard Waterfalls (one of the most photographed waterfalls around!). Along the way, enjoy very easy hiking and well-groomed trails.
Description
Starting from the parking area near the expressway, follow Glen Road across the train tracks to reach the beginning of the trail network. Upon reaching your first junction, head right on the
Perimeter Trail to follow pleasant forests along Allen Creek. A short ways down the trail, make a right at the
Postcard Falls Overlook Spur to catch a glimpse of the gorgeous waterfall.
After enjoy the waterfall, the
Perimeter Trail winds its way through more forest before reaching a junction with the
Long Woodchip Trail. Make a right here to follow the trail to a junction with the
Short Woodchip Trail. Take a right to make your way around the loop, passing two junctions with the
Stone Dust Loop Trail to find the northern end of the
Short Woodchip Trail. From here, it's only a quick jaunt down the
Short Woodchip Trail to the junction with the
Long Woodchip Trail and the return to the parking area.
