I’ve always liked how wetland boardwalks give you the feeling that you’re strolling in a museum, past real-life dioramas. Peoples S.F. has two boardwalks, a short wide one, and nearby a long one that winds its way among sedges, alders, poison sumac, buttonbush, etc. Bring lunch, and we’ll find a spot with tables.

Turn onto Greenwoods Rd. Go about 1.5 miles on Greenwoods Rd. to the intersection with King Rd. Go a little ways past King Rd. and park on the side of the road.
