Description
The trail can be accessed from three locations - BUS 258 across the street from Smithfield Station restaurant and two other locations off of Jericho Road. The trail winds through wooded sections along the banks of the Pagen River and Little Creek. The trail is crushed rock and is well maintained. Your route will be non-technical so you can zone out to your favorite tunes or audio book without the fear of face planting. The trail is a favorite run/walk for the locals but the park is never crowded.
