About This Trail

Imported description

This trail is almost entirely in a forest with different kinds of oaks and hickories. They leave the nature center and follow the trail up and down the hillside to the east. At the top of the hill, there is a junction. The forest trail continues upslope. The trail goes north and then goes down a gentle slope to the Whistle Trail. At this point, you can either continue along Whistle Trail or turn left and complete the remaining portion of Forest Trail. In some places, the tread is rocky.
