Trail 3, 1.0 mile, Moderate, travels a ridge overlooking Worster Lake 'through beech-maple forest and down to [the] lake observation deck' — the short interpretive walk of the system, kingfishers and herons on its water edge. Trail 4, at 2.5 miles, Moderate, is the longest numbered trail: it follows the stream and old farm sites through beech-maple woods and past the lake, and the Indiana Birding Trail singles it out — 'Trail Four has some of the best spots in the park for birdwatching,' a two-to-three-hour birding walk, with the park's notable nesting warblers (Blue-winged, Chestnut-sided, Cerulean and Hooded) in its woods. A trail whose farm sites are part of its published description is a history walk whether it means to be or not: the park was farmed before it was preserved, and Trail 4 keeps the receipts.
