We enjoyed it again on a recent calm, October morning.
The water is usually much higher here so the landscape was different from what we are used to.
There are always wild flowers to marvel at.
Being 4 miles in length, we get great exercise walking down and back. We have yet to walk the entire length, but maybe someday we will surprise ourselves.
Every shade of green to be in awe of.
Along with one of my favorite things, Spanish moss.
This time was a treat with the lower trail being open.
It had been closed every other time we have been here due to the river.
Since the Broad, Saluda and Congaree Rivers join here, the water can become quite wild making the trail dangerous. The summer was extremely dry and hurricane season has not had an effect on the area this year.
There is a little bit of a thrill walking under the bridges.
I love how they form a frame for the river.
The crepe myrtles are still trying to keep their flowers.
It is always a great, free place to come that is full of life with nature, people and their canine friends.
I hope you enjoyed our fall walk!
Thank you for stopping by. ~Val
Great spot for a walk, Val. Sometimes it seems that every town, with even the hint of a creek going through it, has a Riverfront or Riverside Park. And thank goodness for that.
ReplyDeleteThese parks are so important. I think it really helps people appreciate nature more when there are great places to walk.

DeleteYou took beautiful pictures at Riverfront Park Val! I haven't been at this park in a long time. Now that it's getting cooler I might take a visit there!
ReplyDeleteIt is such a perfect place to walk! It had been a while for us with the heat of summer. I don't know how some people can walk this trail in the summer sun!
DeleteThis is beautiful, Val. I love the Spanish moss too!
ReplyDeleteSpanish moss looks so dreamy! It is a treat being able to see it often where we live now.
DeleteHave a wonderful day
