Summary:

From your car, head down Pine Cliff Rd to the end.  You’ll see the sign for the park and the boardwalk that starts immediately.

Hang a left and follow the boardwalk down over a stream and around until it comes to a T.

Head left and leave the boardwalk, picking up the white trail.  It’s short but not well marked so pay attention.  Head slightly uphill.  You’ll hear a lot of noise from the Saw Mill but in the summer is looks nice.

Continue around until you come to the junction with the yellow trail.  Make a left.  These markers are just a tiny bit easier to see but still not very clear.   Follow it a little more.

At the next yellow junction, head left.  You’ll end up back on the boardwalk in just a few yards.

Check out the pond to the far left then come back and head left toward the entrance (diagonal from where the yellow trail joined).
