Today I decided to take my oldest son for a light hike. He is only 5 years old, so it was important for me to find somewhere where he could walk easily and feel a sense of accomplishment when he was done. There aren't a lot of advertised places near us, but I remembered a light trail that is close to our home I enjoyed as a child.
Rodburn Park is nestled just off of U.S. 60 East and is a great place for a day in the woods with the kids. There is a covered pavilion, bbq grilles, volleyball net, swing sets, and of course the hiking trails. The Park has 2 trails, Rodburn Loop and a connector to the Sheltowee Trace. The Rodburn Loop trail is perfect for young ones as it is only about .6 miles in length. The trail was well maintained and has 3 bridges passing over beautiful, clear streams. He thoroughly enjoyed this hike and I enjoyed his company, what more could you ask for.
