Hike, Horseback, and Mountain Bike
McAdoo Trail passes through both bottomland and upland woodlands with several creek crossings. Travelers will pass through Christopher Woods, a section of woodland that contains the oldest stand of continuous timber within the park. White connector 1 (1.20 miles) and white connector 2 (.45 miles) are provided for shortening the hike or creating additional looping options. McAdoo Trail is the only trail in the park open to equestrian riders as well as hikers.
More Information
Never modify trail features. Ride trails when they're dry enough that you won't leave ruts. Speak up when you see others on the trail and always yield to hikers, horses, and others coming uphill. Always ride on the established trail.
