Description
There is no charge to use the trails but you should sign in at the ticket office. The trails are on private property so please respect the trails.
The Embree Loops Trails are a series of progressive loops that travel through mainly softwood forest. The forest transitions more into fields and old overgrown fields as they get closer to Central Hainesville Road. The trails also travel through a young birch stand on the Green Roadrunner Trail, through a balsam fir plantation on the Black Cat Trail, and through old apple orchards along the ATV Trail. When the trail comes out into the lower field adjacent to the Central Hainesville Road there is a small graveyard with gravestones dating back to the late 1800's.
