Overview

A great riverside trail that's flat and quick. Can be accessed from trailheads on either end.

Description

Park at the trailhead on either end.

An easy running trail on a graded dirt road along the river and a doubletrack fire road on the off river loop side.

Explore the offshoots for a tougher or muddier trail experience. This is a well-traveled trail which is very popular year round.
