John Noel Trail

A gently rolling path that wanders through old growth forest and past several spectacularly large trees, edging sinkholes tracing a lengthy cave that lies beneath. Along the northern portion, the trail runs along the Spring Creek valley and past the old Bon Aqua Springs Resort property; depending on the weather your nose might catch a whiff of the sulfur spring which used to be the "cure" for thousands of visitors in the early 20th century. The old swimming pool is still very much in evidence, but please don't visit it as it is on private property.

The Bon Aqua Springs Resort was once a destination for thousands. My father used to clean their (spring-fed!) swimming pool! Check out this website for more information.
