Description

The teal-blazed Cowasee is a twisty trail that takes the user off of the Scout Loop/Palmetto Trail doubletrack. It begins where the Whippoorwill Trail ends in the counterclockwise direction and ends near the parking lot. The counter-clockwise direction is a gradual downhill for much of the trail. Look for more trails planned in the future!
