Horse Camp Trail at Fairy Stone State Park

Fairy Stone State Park recently finished construction of a new trail.  The Horse Camp Trail extends from the Mountain View Trail to a newly purchased piece of property near the intersection of Highway 57 and Fairystone Lake Drive.  Named for a yet to be built equestrian camping facility, the Horse Camp Trail is slightly less than one and three quarters of a mile long and is blazed red.


While unsigned at this time, it only intersects the trail system in one location, slightly past the wildlife plot on the Mountain View Trail.  The trail is considered moderate difficulty and has several hundred feet of elevation change.  It follows along a ridge, then drops down into a valley and crosses Hale Creek, passing through several fields before it reaches Highway 57.  It is a multi-use trail open to hikers, bikers and equestrian trail users.
