WCC Walking Trail 

Visitors can access the trail from one of the many trailheads. Parking is available on campus, by the pond off Community Boulevard, and near the baseball fields off Main Street.

For 2.4 miles, the trail circles campus and the ball fields before winding through a hardwood hammock and passing around the pond. Visitors will travel through several ecosystems and may spot ducks, geese, rabbits, wood chucks, and seasonal migratory birds.

The Walking and Biking Trail may be reserved by contacting WCC Facilities. All signs posted must be followed. The trail should only be used during daylight hours. Cyclists must give right of way to walkers and joggers. The trail path will not be cleared during inclement weather. Even when reserved, the public will still have access to the Walking and Biking Trail
