March 28, 2021March 10, 2021Well marked! We followed the Blue path which was not completely marked on the AllTrails map. If the water was higher you would cross a few water crossings. Very easy to follow and wasn’t that hard. There were a few views but it was a nice workout overall. Definitely worth doing at least once!
March 9, 2021Very simple hike. Relaxing and a bit of wildlife to see too.
March 6, 2021February 21, 2021February 5, 2021It was super muddy but a great beginner trail. Had a very beautiful river at the connecting trail!
January 28, 2021It’s an okay trail for hiking. Not a lot to see but did saw some deer. Pretty winding trails, great for mountain biking though.
January 3, 2021Kinda crappy but a little snow
January 1, 2021December 27, 2020We had a good hike here, but this trail is definitely more equipped and meant for biking. Nice views of the Sac River, too. We did the red loop and did get off trail a few times. Definitely get a picture of the map at the trailhead if you’re worried about that.
December 10, 2020Started in the light and finished in the dark. 70° December day.

October 9, 2020Excellent trail for a run near Springfield Missouri
October 3, 2020If you start at the pavilion and head straight down the red trail, you will hit a trail map which helps a ton. Even with that, and what I felt was decently marked forks in the trails, I did take one small wrong turn, but it was super fun regardless. Pretty rocky for trail running, I think the red trail was the smoothest, but was still peaceful and pretty!
August 29, 2020Rained this morning and the trail was perfect. Very little tiny spots of mud.

June 25, 2020Trail was overgrown , hard to tell which way to go very confusing!! Lots of ticks every time I stopped for a moment they literally were crawling up my legs. I wouldn’t take a pet.
