Lovely trail. Took the extended loop all the way around; just over 2hrs with a couple stops for the dog to wade in the water. Lots of horse manure, but easy to just walk around it. The river was a very nice aspect to the trail, which was all very rustic and lightly travelled. Not obvious at first where to enter the trail, but thankfully some nice people helped us get on our way.
A well-maintained trail through pleasant fields, dense woods, and along a stream. A little muddy in parts (following a week of rain), but very manageable. Easy-moderate.
has nice, clean trails and an interesting, sunny meadow walk. not difficult.
