The Mill Creek Recreation Trail: Walla Walla, WA
A good trail if you want a nice stroll with nothing too hard involved, this is a good trail for you. Beginning hikers, joggers, road bikers, and walkers will all find this a fun and easy way to enjoy some scenery. The trail is paved for a good distance, and has good access for handicapped wheelchairs. The trail runs from Rooks Park to the east of Walla Walla, into town at Walla Walla. The path is not accessible at that point for all people, particularly disabled, since the paved section is only just over a mile long. It does offer a nice view and a relaxing hike/run if you like easy terrain, though. Here are some stats:
Terrain: Paved until 1.2 miles from Rooks Park, then dirt and gravel.
Distance: Connects with 20 miles of trails, so you choose!
Time: Again, depends on how many trails you go off on, but in general, you can sight-see in under an hour.
Difficulty: Easy
Directions: Follow Hwy 12 east and turn right on Mill Creek Road, then follow signs for Rooks Park.
