Take water, the streams you cross are ankle deep, i just let my sneakers get wet, it was no big deal. My cousin did wear water proof ticking boots. I wouldn't wear sandals although we saw teenagers with sandals on and they were fine. You can pick up along the way fallen branches that serve well as walking sticks, that what we did and then left them for someone else to use. you can spend the whole day out there, we got tired of it after 4 hours. Its a trail it doesn't loop around. Have fun, take lots of pic

It's an out-and-back trail and it crosses the creek several times so be sure to wear waterproof shoes or be ready for some wet feet! It took us 4 hours total which includes time to take pictures and stand at some spots taking it all in for a few moments.
