Set out on a hike with toddlers. Time to get those hike a thon miles in. The trailhead refers to this trail as the riverside loop trail. You can take the loop in either direction. We turned to the right and headed into the woods the trail quickly became a forest full of ferns and moss and lots of shade. Found a good spot for the kids to enjoy the water, do be careful the river is deep and wide and fast. We opted not for the sand barge spots in the begining but found a safer spot further down. Kids enjoyed observing and holding an inchworm and then we turned a corner and saw where a fire had hit the area. It was eerie to see and the kids were full of questions. This stretch was very hot not shady and not as fascinating as the lush green section. We ended our hike at the visitor center where the kids got the answers to the million questions.
