Description
This is one of many well-marked dirt trails that make up the Forest Park Nature Center. The trail travels beneath the forest canopy, which is largely made up of silver maple and oak trees. It connects with multiple other trails that grant you access to more or less difficult terrain. It is not uncommon for hikers to spot wild turkey or deer on this trail.
