Description

This gravel-surfaced trail is about 6-8 feet in width. It winds along the wooded edge of the Fish River for 0.3 miles, providing scenic views along the way. For part of its length, the trail parallels the high school track and multi-use fields then winds near to the public pool. The northern trailhead is located near the University of Maine Fort Kent, and abuts the Riverside West Trail. The southern trailhead connects to both the St. John Valley Heritage Rail Trail and the Jalbert Park Trail, both of which can be added onto the Crocker Trail to extend a user's walk.
