Covered Bridge Trail

Dogs Leashed

Features Birding · Fall Colors · River/Creek · Wildflowers

This trail heads off of the meadow area and parallels Michigan Road on a mowed path. It turns into the woods at the point where an Eagle Scout has constructed a covered bridge (summer 2015) to shelter and protect the existing footbridge. There is also a newly blazed trail that heads up from the bridge to the Fox Hill trail.

This part of the trail (in the woods) can get pretty steep. It crosses several stone walls in the forest and switches back a few times to help the climb. It joins Fox Hill just below that trail's high point. Hikeers can either return to the meadow by making a left, or head to Michigan Road campground by making a right.
