Highlights:
The Oxbo Trail runs between Waller and Grimes Bridge Parks with an extension that follows Waller Creek for about a mile. It has a mix of dirt, paved, and crushed stone trails and can be accessed from either park or from a parking area along Grimes Bridge Road.
A bridge separates the Oxbo Trail from the Vickery Creek Trail system (which is managed by the National Park Service), so a longer hiking option is available if you join the two trail systems. Be sure to check out the waterfall along Oxbo Road. It’s impressive from the bridge but easiest to see in the winter months.
