Reviews
Brooklyn Creek Park is basically nature trails behind a few blocks of in town houses. It does allow access to the beautiful babbling Brooklyn Creek - which salmon & trout use en route to their spawning grounds in the autumn.
If you walk up a set of steps, across Balmoral Avenue & down the steps on the other side - you'll be in Mack Laing Nature Park. I always assumed Brooklyn Creek Park was just a continuation of MLN Park. There are several access points from different streets - one being off Cedar Avenue, which does have a wheelchair ramp over a green metal bridge. Though the distance on the trails themselves suitable for wheelchair travel is limited.
These trails are mainly used by local's walking their dog's, runner's, older folk's taking a stroll, many use it as a shortcut. Bikes are allowed - though most of the trails are narrow, so be considerate of others. They are busy trails - rarely can you use them without meeting someone.
My favorite part of this mini park is the faux waterfalls that is located close to the Balmoral Avenue access. It's a lovely little spot to stop for a moment & enjoy nature's sensory input.

Great for a walk through a forested Creek ravine. Goes right down to the ocean.
