Saturday Hike/Hobbs State Park

One of my favorite things to do is go hiking.  One of our favorite places to go hiking is Hobbs State Park.  It is close to us and we can do hikes without driving very far.  There are several hikes in the state park and I am trying to do all of them.  So far, I have hiked most of the trails there one time or another.







This hike, the Shaddox Hollow Trail, was one of the hikes I had not done.  It is only 1.5 mile around a loop trail.  You start at the top and walk down to the hollow and then back up the hill.  It was a good choice today because we just wanted a short hike and it was a pretty warm day.  The hike only took us an hour to do, but was long enough for us today.

















At the bottom of the hollow, you see part of Beaver Lake.



 

After viewing the lake, we started our climb out of the hollow.  It is a nice little hike.  I would love to come back and hike it when the leaves are off the trees and the weather not so warm.

  1. Looks like a fun hike. We need to do this together this fall when we are all finished with vacations and it is cooler.
