A whitewashed brick entrance set next to spacious homes made me question whether I had made a wrong turn. Alas, this is the entrance to the small parking area at Llandover Woods. I was hoping to time the weather for a nice sun break on this quick hike, but that didn’t really happen. While the sun peaked out momentarily, at least it wasn’t raining, and Llandover Woods Greenspace is filled with a lot of trees and greenery, making it a perfect escape during a dreary day.

Heading right at the first junction, I contemplated taking another right for the trail down to Sherwood road, but opted to stick on the loop as I didn’t have long between work meetings. It was amazing how many ferns covered the forest floor - I want to know what they are feeding these things!

I completed the loop and then made my way back up the trail, catching a glimpse of Puget Sound towards the end.
