Trail Rating/Description

Two Choices! 10K OR 5K. Longer route is 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) in length and is rated 1. The 10K qualifies for the Spirit of Walking Cemetery Stroll and Walking State Parks in the USA programs. The 5K alternate route qualifies for Walking State Parks in the USA, but starts within the SRA itself, and vehicles may be subject to the $4.00 daily fee, unless the vehicle already has the annual pass displayed. The Trail is very flat and is suitable for strollers and wheelchairs but may have some difficulty with one set of railroad tracks (this appiles only to the 10K). This trail is through a State Recreation Area past several lakes, wooded areas, and a couple of beaches. Roads may not be plowed/shoveled in the winter. All paved roads/paths/sidewalks.

Comments
