   Is Peavy Arboretum a good place to hike?

   • Peavy Arboretum has many trails, many loops combining logging roads with trails. Calloway Creek is a very nice 3 mile or so, little elevation... Beautiful wild flowers, forests etc. Or take the 500 Gate up to Crone Miller Lake and wind your way back down to your car. A more challenging hike is following the 36 Loop.
