Need to Know

There are no services on the way, and the trail is often muddy.

Description

This trail is the only multi-use trail in the park; horse use is common, and the trail shows signs of it. It is often muddy in low areas and torn up by horses. It is also permitted for mountain bikes; however, unless its very dry out, this isn't much fun. Honestly, I only mapped this trail to finish the project I started.

Flora & Fauna

Just southern Indiana woods, nothing special.
