This is the second part of the overall Cherry On Top trail we are building. We completed the first part at the end of 2020. This trail connects the north parking lot to The Falls trail and eventually will connect to the Cherry On Top we built previously. Coming from The Falls to the north lot the trail is mainly downhill with the exception of the part right after the creek crossing. We have a great switchback near an exit 14 sign you can see on I-74 at the top of the corner.

Access Info

Can access this trail from either parking lot
