Morris Bridge Park


The most popular and most extensive network of trails are accessed at the "Hole in the Fence" trailhead approximately 100 yards from the I-75 Fletcher Avenue off ramp, east on Morris Bridge Road. The actual facilities for Morris Bridge Park are a few miles north of the "Hole in the Fence" trailhead and offer picnic benches, a boat launch, board walks and restrooms. Since the main facilities are a few miles from the "Hole in the Fence" trailhead and Trout Creek's ample facilities are directly across the street, this tail access point is probably not the most used due to it's lack of amenities, but boy does it offer the most immediately accessible trail choices. This is an extensive, crisscrossing trail network. Keep in mind, you will probably get marginally lost at least once. The local riders can be of navigational help, but a good map and compass are highly recommended for all but the seasoned Morris Bridge rider.

The bike trail begins behind the rest rooms, follow the footbridge under the road, then follow the two-track south. The trails are a little sandy in spots and it floods during heavy rains. If summer, spray yourself with anti-mosquito spray. Approximately 10-15 miles of trails. If you hook-up with someone who knows the area, they can connect you with another 10-15 miles of trails.
