The Redmond Watershed Preserve offers a well-maintained network of trails, suitable for various activities, with free parking available at both the south and north lots. The south lot provides full restrooms, while the north lot does not. While trails are generally wide and in good condition, some areas can be muddy, especially after rain. Equestrians use these trails, so expect to encounter pony droppings. Wildflowers are in bloom during the spring, with various species noted. Wildlife sightings include ducks, forest birds, and rough-skinned newts. The Tree Frog Loop is ADA compliant and paved.
