The city of Silver City has a wonderful walking park that is a must visit. At the entrance different walking paths are described and the length of each walk is listed. Clever, different, and fun.

Very interesting story behind this big ditch park. We sat and had a picnic lunch on a bench. It’s beautiful when you look beyond the trash.

Nice area for a walk or sitting amongst the trees.

Secure parking in Silver City. Take the trail south and soon you'll be in a nice hike along the creek. You'll experience ruins and remnants of items from days gone by. Various information signs also exist which add to the experience. I was informed that along the Big Ditch trail I would encounter and be approached by homeless people which might be uncomfortable for some. So far this has not happened.

Very amazing trail and bridges next to a small stream that often bulges into a river during floods. Was once the main street, and today may be revived with rear-facing businesses, especially near the old roller rink soon to be a brewery and tasting room.

Pretty area, water is very low though.
