Sweetser Switch Trail

Great fun and exercise

I am one of the regular users of this fine trail. As a hobby I ride trails throughout the country and I find this trail to be one of the finer trails that I have ridden. One mile of this linear trail is also a park. (Run by the Sweetser Switch Park Board) This part of the trail is manicured with lots of trees on it. You can memorialize a loved one here by purchasing one of the trees on the trail. For about $150 you can memorialize one of your friends or family on the trail and receive a plague as well as a planted tree. This fine trail has a tree nursery that is growing small trees that will later be planted on the trail. All proceeds go to the upkeep of the trail. Volunteers abound from this small town that make this one of the neater trails in the midwest. In 2009 this trail will connect to the Cardinal Greenway and that is causing lots of excitement in this area. Please stop and visit this trail.
Review for the Sweetser Switch Trail

My wife and I rode this trail several times last summer (2007). We found the trail to be quite relaxing, if not a bit on the short side. One of our favorite spots is at the West end of the trail… it is a covered bridge with a picnic area going over a small stream. We plan on packing a picnic lunch next season and spending some time at the bridge. I would highly recommend this trail to anyone that is in search of just a pleasant little get away. It will be much better when it is joined with the cardinal greenway to the East, and there are plans in the works to extend it to the West to the town of Converse IN.
