Description

This wooded trail passes by the ruins of the old town of Matildaville before continuing up the hill to the south end of the park. It starts off as a fairly level trail, but becomes hilly near the intersection with the Ridge Trail. In the winter, there are limited views of Mather Gorge.

The trail is narrow and often muddy. Hikers are asked to yield to horses on the trail.
