TRAVEL... the hand-built wooden bridges of the coastal backcountry, nestled between the countless species of native plants and wildlife. Find tranquility on this one-mile stretch linking the east trails of Catman Road, Rattlesnake Ridge and Cotton Bayou to the west trail of Gulf Oak Ridge. Rest and recharge on one of the many dedicated benches speckled throughout the park while spotting a red or gray fox, possibly a coyote or even the simplicity of a squirrel nibbling on a nut.
The journey over the Twin Bridges carries you into the heart of the native land and shares the beauty of a familiar but rare ecosystem. Each habitat is defined by its distinct diversity initiating a dialogue between man and nature.
Trail features Al's Parkour Park/Playground and a Stage.
