Description
Sharing a portion of the Natural Parkland Trail, this is another fun singletrack, continuing the Shelton Trail, this portion extends east a bit and is maintained by the city of Highland. There are more sections further to the east, which at this time are open, but not shown on this map. This is a very lightly-traveled trail, given its proximity to suburbia. The trail is multi-use so be aware of and courteous to other users.
