Runner Notes

Mostly flat terrain, hard packed surface, great for a scenic fast run.

Description

Enjoy beautiful views of the lake on the way out for about 1 mile, the rest of the trail is in the Dells. Many options to take alternate routes on the left side once you reach the Dells. This trail links with Iron King Trail at the fork at mile 3, take a right to add another 4+ miles. Take a left to go downhill for another almost 2 miles.

Beautiful views of the mountains above Prescott when you reach mile 2.5.
