Description

This trail system is made up of a series of short, easy paths that interconnect and offer gentle hiking on a surface with only minor elevation change. The various loops that make up this network are appropriate for all ages. 

These trails provide a quick, easy way to immerse the hiker in the woods, nature, and wildlife at the EcoVenture campus. There is a frog pond on the property, which is filled with aquatic wildlife throughout the summer. A large playing field allows those with mobility issues to walk on a grassy surface. This is a great location go birding, play frisbee, or meander through the woods with the family.

Trail Tips

Travel and Camp on Durable Surfaces
Stick to established trails and campsites. If there's no trail, try to walk on rock, gravel, or snow and spread out so that your group doesn't create a trail.
