Descrption: Beautiful, natural, canopied trail. Even a short walk on the trail will be worth your time. Consider taking the full trip, though, for the impressive views from the elevated railbed leading up to the trestle 30' above Crittenden Creek. A separated, fully shaded horse trail is under construction parallel to the main path far off to one side. The first 0.25 miles of the trail in Amo is an open-aired, well-manicured, park-like setting. It's important to note that this is still a rustic trail. There are no public restrooms, water, or electricity, though you can find much of what you need if you shop at Amo General Store or eat at Amo Pizza across Pearl Street from the Interurban Depot.
