Experience Fall's ColorWhen: Thu Oct 01, 2015 10AM-5PM |
This three-mile walk is a favorite for people in the Beavercreek area. The bark-chip path circles the Stone Creek Golf Club south of Oregon City and begins near the Pro Shop. Within minutes you are in wetlands that lead to a cool forest accompanied by soothing sounds of running water from Stone Creek. There are some hills as we pass beautiful homes along the way. Wear sturdy walking shoes and bring a snack and water. After the walk we'll have lunch at Bugatti's in Oregon City.
