Description

This hike is a great day hike for anyone who is looking to see what the Dishman Hills has to offer. You can take your dog and family on the trail without much issue. As you leave the parking lot and trailhead you'll start to get away from the sections the have seen the most abuse on the trail. Overall it is a nice local hike.

While the best views are atop Nimbus Knob and Eagle Peak in the Dishman Hills, there are beautiful views available from other spots on the trail as well.

The East/West Pond area is primarily a "pond" during spring and early summer. It typically drys out in mid-late summer. Lots of aquatic wildlife make this a fun place for kids!

Spring is wildflower season in the Dishman Hills! Grass widows are very common throughout the area.
