Description
This trail connects Twin Creek and Germantown MetroParks and is a part of the Twin Valley Trail. This route is best used to connect the parks, as there's not much in the way of views along the way. Bring tennis shoes if you plan on hiking the entirety of the Twin Valley Trail, it's a long route!
