ranchland. Foothill offers varied terrain from the challenging climb up Alta
Vista Trail from Pond C, to a gentle stroll along gravel surfaced Three Lakes
Trail which is moderately accessible for wheelchairs. Excellent views of the
Windsor area can be had from several lookouts off of Westwood and Oakwood
Trails. Picnic tables and benches can be found throughout the park. Foothill is
popular with equestrians, and the majority of the trails in the park are
available for riding. The following trails are dedicated to hiking only: Bobcat
Trail, Pond A Loop, Pond B Loop, Pond C Trail, and the Ravine
Trail.
