Thorntown's Keewasakee Trail provides a short but scenic foray from the town into Sugar Creek Valley. The trail officially ends just north of Sugar Creek, which you can cross via an iron bridge. Thorntown itself is the quintessential rural Indiana town, with charming houses sheltered by large, old trees.
At it's southern end the trail links with the
Farm Heritage Trail, which continues south to Lebanon. Simply follow Pearl Street at the southern end of the Keewasakee Trail to Main Street (2 blocks) and pick up the Farm Heritage Trail.
There is no official parking for the Keewasakee Trail but on-street parking is available in town.
Trail is only 1/4 of a mile from my home and very convenient. The Trail is clean and well maintained in it's natural setting.
