      This trail system lies on the bluffs that include Sunbridge Hills Conservation Area. Riding from there is the best way to access this trail. Although many maps show this area as River Bluffs Park, the city of Saint Joseph officially refers to this area as the River Bluffs Tract. In the early 1900's, city officials wanted to create a massive park linking Wyeth Hill and Krug Park with River Bluffs Park. That plan never came to be and only two stone structures built in the 1930's are the only visible remnants of the city's grand vision. For more details of the history of the park, see History & Background below.
