About this park
A long, narrow 65-acre park hemmed by hills, with Furnace Creek and a chain of small man-made waterfalls running down its length. CCC stonework from the Depression era survives as a bridge and stairways, and short shaded woodland trails branch off the paved paths. The paving is uneven and not well maintained, so it suits a walk over a run.

Before you go
Wear sturdy shoes; the stone stairways and rough paving aren't built for speed. Follow the creek path for the waterfalls and the best of the shade.
