Although the Nature Center is closed due to COVID-19, we went here to do a self guided hike. We planned on doing the Albert Loop, but it was closed because the salmon spawning brought a large influx of bear. We chose to do another trail, the Dew Mound trail and spent an enjoyable 4 hours hiking. We liked that there were multiple trails that entwined and allowed us to add on to our journey, but cut back when we became fatigued. Beautiful setting nestled amongst the mountains.

As a neighborhood, we’re having a conversation in the barbara falls area. The directions on the computer maps are correct. We now have non interactive street art (Not mine) that directs you to keep going slow and straight on riverview/waterfall dr. Do not be deceived by the street sign that reads “barbara falls rd”. It will damn you to hell with all the dead ends. You will take your first right at the STOP sign at the bottom of riverview/waterfall. Drive down till you see the fork in the road. Take a left at the fork and try not to park in the fire lane. Have fun. Remember fish will be coming into the confluence of the river soon, and that means bears. Carry bear spray, they live here. This beautiful place is wonderful to hike any time of the year. Bring ice cleats in the winter;) In response to the parking, the entrance is a cul de sac and the no parking signs mean it’s a fire lane. Most of trail heads in residential areas have this issue.
