Great spot! If your headed down old Watsonville Hwy this a the place to stop and stretch the legs. A simple but beautiful trail, next to the river. Historical plaque and a small museum that is closed. Worth the stop..

It is a small yet very educational park to visit. It goes over the history of the native peoples of this area and has some great views of the creek.

Great short stroll, less than a half mile- so wonderful for little ones. I believe they do a school trip here. Great history lesson though.

Interpretive trail featuring Ohlone cooking sites and petroglyphs. Beautiful scenery.

Couldnt see any of the petroglyphs. Signage and displays were poorly maintained, or just missing in some cases. Severely disappointing.

Nice little archeological site with wheelchair accessible trails, bathrooms and picnic tables.

This is a quaint little park/picnic area! Great place for a picnic since there are plenty of picnic tables throughout the park. There is also a great informational hut located on the property that talks about the historical aspect of the park. If you are looking for a challenging hiking spot I would not recommend Chitactac-Adams as we were able to walk the entire trail in less than 10 minutes.

Great historical site along Watsonville Rd. Originally stopped here for the same reason I imagine most people do, to use the bathrooms, which are almost always clean. Theres a small walking path with some really interesting facts about the surrounding area and peoples that once lived there. I found this small site pleasantly educational and have visited numerous times.

Great little park. Cultural education as well. Doesnt take long at all so if youre planning an outing for the day; youll want to add something else to your day. They do have picnic tables and benches.

Beautiful place! Nice shady spots. The only problem (and its no ones fault) is that everything is a dirt trail. If anyone were to scuff up that dirt, there will definitely be a dust cloud. But thats nature. Cest la vie.

This park is small, but definitely worth seeing nonetheless. The beautiful boulders scattered along the creek still bear signs of the native population that used to live there, and the creek itself is lovely (when theres water in it, that is )
