Cattail Pond co-exists next to a well-used disc golf course and is a short walk downhill from the main trail. Many small stones on the path but no major obstacles.
Overview
Cattail Pond is located below the White Clay Creek Disc Golf Course. There is also a wildlife observation platform to the west side, hidden under a small grove of trees. The pond itself is a catch-and-release area for fishing. Appears to be spring fed, with a steel drain to the east end that empties into a small creek and the meadow below.
Need to Know
There are portable toilets and a comfort station at the Disc Golf parking lot.
Runner Notes
Many loose stones on the Disc Park access trail. The path to the pond is grassy and gently sloped.
Description
From the disc park trail, a small sign points the way towards the pond. The trail is not well-marked, but if you look across a grassy meadow you'll spot a small grove of trees. The wildlife observation platform is nestled behind the trees and beyond that is the pond. There is a gently-sloped ramp leading up to the platform, no stairs involved.
The hills shield the pond area from the noise of the Disc Golf park and makes the pond a quiet, meditative space to enjoy!
