The Lewis Eaton trail is wide enough to accommodate plenty of bike, pedestrian, and other assorted forms of travel even on the busiest day. Running through 300 acre Woodward Park, you'll travel through cool forests of California Redwoods and Lodgepole Pines before coming to the wildlife-rich San Joaquin river conservancy land. We've seen Foxes, Red-tail Hawks, huge flocks of Cedar Waxwings, Scrub Jays, and tons of Egrets, Ducks, and Geese along the way - so bring your binoculars. The River Conservancy House at the end of the trail is beautiful and well worth the trip - water, bathrooms, and a gift shop are located ajacent to the River House. If you have the time (and the equipment) take a side-trip to the Mountain Bike Course at Woodward Park - they've done a beautiful job of building an extensive and challenging run!
