This is the first half of the Red Loop. You can either continue onto the rest of the Red loop or take the connector that leads to the rest of the trails here. When you come to a Y in the trail that has a white gravel pile that it looks like people have been jumping, you can either go straight (to the other trails) or go right onto the rest of the Red Loop.

Access Info

Preferred parking is right off of 265 (across from the Branson Belle basically). Has a bathroom and good parking.

      Great day on this trail running clockwise. A little wet from last nights rain but easy to avoid by skirting the side.

      Good trail, good start after leaving the parking lot gets you ready for the more technical climbing of the blue route.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
