Tyler State Park

"Always love coming to this park. A lot of parking lots to find parking but if it's a nice weekend (summer) you better get here early because you will not find any or will be closed due to no spots. Go through the main entrance hit stop sign make a right go all the way down the road to last parking lot. This is where you should start. Canoe rentals, water fall (small) food stand, grills and tables. Good paved trails all through out with off the beaten path trails all over. If you are on the off path just watch for horses that people ride in the park. Me I enjoy walking the trails to photograph the wildlife. IG: adileon0125"

"I’m going to share a more specific location at Tyler Park. Fisherman Lot which is across the street from the Spring Garden Mill. They used to turn the mill into a haunted house for Halloween when I was growing up. The lot is not paved and does not have bathrooms. It does have a trash can which is great as my dogs love to go right when we first start our hikes. There are a few picnic tables in a grassy area. The grass is high and my son had a tick on his leg just from walking through. We started on the main paved path but there is another trail option right from the lot that isn’t paved. Once you’ve walked a bit you have directional options. I always have my son choose and check his compass to let us know the direction we’ll be heading. We wound up on the cliff side of the creek, opposite side of the main lots with the bathrooms and playground. The few people we passed, as it was early, were people out for a walk to get exercise. We were able to locate some actual trails so we could get our hike on. Once in the woods we were met with beautiful moss covered rocks and frog hopped out in front of us at one point. I know there are snakes in the rockier areas. Fortunately for me we didn’t come across any. In short for people out for exercise or to walk your dog you have nice paved paths. If you want to go off these paths to hike you have options. All will eventually lead you back to the main paved path. If you are heading into the wooden areas I recommend hiking shoes. Also, if you don’t want to deal with the nonsense of the main lots by the dam, this is a great option."
