2.5 miles

* The event image shows the trail (along the creek) we will be hiking -
Snow covered dirt path and snow covered paved trail.
Travel will be UP hill at the beginning and DOWN hill on the way back.
There will be one STEEP DOWN HILL from the bluff top down to the creek bed 100 feet long.

We will be taking a nature hike from the parking lot of Oakwood Church uphill on a snow covered dirt path along Fish Creek to the top of the park.
Next we will walk on a park road a short distance to a snow covered paved trail, looping around the prairie.
From there we short cut across the prairie and go through the woods taking a path back down a steep hill to the creek and head back to the Church parking lot.

On the bluff of the Mississippi River, the prairie and woodlands of the Maplewood's Fish Creek Natural Area beckon hikers and wildlife. A trail winds up to the bluff top, and opens to views of the western horizon. Part of the Mississippi River flyway, the site is frequented by raptors, songbirds, and has fox, coyote, and deer.
