Secundino Trail Loop

Trail Overview

The trail winds through sandy, sloping grasslands, offering a scenic drive with curving roads that weave through the open landscape. Several well-established campsites with fire rings provide excellent spots to set up camp while enjoying panoramic views reminiscent of the African savanna. The area is home to an abundance of white-tailed deer, and those driving slowly may have the opportunity to spot them along the route. This trail is also a popular choice for cyclists, and a nearby watering hole attracts wildlife, making it an ideal location for animal viewing. Near the old cattle ranch, a ranger's residence or office can be found, adding a historical element to the journey. The trail lacks amenities such as trash disposal and water supply, and it has limited cell service.
