Description
The trail starts near the gatehouse. At 0.8 miles, the trail goes under IN 225 before intersecting the road which goes to the aquatic center. The next two miles go by the campground and a few shelters and playgrounds. Around mile 3, the newly constructed path goes by the fishing pond, a basketball court, an overlook, a creek, and a monument to Native tribes. The rest of the trail travels through open prairie until ending at an overlook of the Tippecanoe River.
