Yankee Springs Recreational Area: The well maintained riding trails here will take the horse and rider winding around and to the top of Baird Hill, then on to marshes, Duck Lake and Pines Scenic Area to hilly and woodland terrain, through scrub oak, maple, and white, red and Norfolk pine. Along the way, the rider might chance upon red, black and gray squirrels, turkey, and a variety of birds, or the peace and tranquility the woods and open spaces have to offer.

BIG Thank you to Ron, Carla, Garret, Amanda & Everett Walker for your hard work out in the heat!

Enjoy your trails, trail riders! This amazing family worked their tails off to make them accessible and safe to you!
