Location Information
This trail follows the South Fork of the Trinity River south for 7.5 miles. The fist section of the trail skirts the south and southwest facing bluff, overlooking the river. 3.5 miles from the trailhead, the trail crosses the river at a ford, this is a good place for a picnic or a swim. There is a swinging foot bridge, a great swimming hole, and a campsite at the end of the trail.

Some stream crossings may impassible during winter months.
