Description

This multi-use paved trail follows an old railroad track. Along the way, you'll get to hike through several tunnels and over bridges to bypass the roads along the trail. The path connects between a residential road and ends by Helena Middle School. Along the way you'll enjoy shaded and scenic hiking with a few overlooks with more open views.
