About This Trail

Imported description
Trail ceased functioning from December 15 to March 31. If you want to hike in the nature preserve, you may have to park at the parking lot. The outer perimeter is the map and some of the inside trails. There are more shorts inside trails, according to the quote. In some places are hilly and rocky. It was not a big deal to cross the missing bridges because the streams were mostly small and there was not much water. A trickle was going over a small waterfall. You can see the trail going along the Mississippi River bluffs. Don't be silly if you have an issue with heights. Keep an eye on any children, as it could be dangerous. It is a nice hike and enjoyable.
