Do
'''Hike, bike,''' and '''ride horses''' on almost 90 miles of marked trails, including the '''Trailway''', a 64.25 mile stretch that was once a railroad line. The path crosses 46 bridges and passes through Clarity Tunnel as it weaves its way from the top of the Caprocks down to the North Central Plains, terminating at the small town of Estelline. Excluding the Trailway, some of the trails here are not for the beginner, with steep climbs and precipitous drops. Check with a ranger before embarking.
