The Dunes and Rapids
The Dunes area is a scenic gem that most
tourists never get to experience. There is a
trail that runs alongside the river which leads
to rapids. The rapids are particularly beautiful
in Spring when the water is high. This area is
popular for fishing. |
|
The public access to the dunes and trail is
tucked away in the Oxbow Park residential area.
It is tricky to find because it isn't as
noticeable from the road as the other trails.
From Mosley Street (92) turn onto Oxbow Park Rd
(at Schoonertown Park - on the east side of the
Schoonertown Bridge and across the bridge from
the Riverbend Plaza) |
