The yellow-blazed 4.3 km Odena Loop Trail leaves the main trail ~10 m N of where the main trail (white blazes) leaves Sixth Line. The main trail turns right (E) and parallels Sixth Line; take the loop trail which continues straight. The loop trail ascends gradually through mixed hardwood forest to a blue-blazed side trail on the right. The 400 m long blue-blazed side trail leads to a not-to-be-missed lookout overlooking Sixth Line, with views of Hiawatha Park, St. Mary’s River and Sault Ste. Marie areas. Continue E along the loop trail for 600 m before descending steeply to the railway tracks. Use extreme caution crossing this right-of-way.

East of the tracks the trail traverses a cedar swamp for a few metres before entering drier land. Pass through a mixed conifer and deciduous forest with interesting rock formations for 1 km. The trail crosses the Old Trout Lake Rd and a small creek, and climbs briefly before descending to skirt along a wetland. For the next several hundred metres the trail passes through
mostly hardwood forest. At times, shooters at the local Rod and Gun Club may be heard practicing to the S – there is no danger to hikers.

The trail passes along the base of a cliff and eventually crosses a small logged area before reaching the point where the Beaver Loop Trail branches off E. The Odena Loop Trail continues S over a number of hills and recent partially logged areas. Note a large glacial erratic boulder in this area. The loop trail then crosses Connor Rd just E of the gate and heads SE
through Thayer to connect with the main trail just after crossing the Crystal Creek on the snowmobile trail bridge. It’s about a 2.5 km walk W along the main trail back to the start to complete this loop
