The Big 4 Rail Trail will eventually connect all of Boone County, from the Marion County line to the south, to the Clinton County line to the north. A large portion of the trail is already complete. Whitestown's portion is completely paved, including a new trail head and plenty of parking at 104 S. Main St. Whitestown. Whitestown's portion of the Big 4 Trail should connect with Zionsville's portion in 2018. It will eventually connect to Lebanon and Thorntown to the northwest. Trail highlights the historic railroad route, upon which both the Lincoln Inaugural Train and the Lincoln Funeral Train traveled in 1861 and 1865 respectively. Walkers, runners and bikers can enjoy the paved trail winding through tree canopies, farmland, and our historic downtown.
The trailhead is located at 104 S. Main St. Whitestown in the heart of Whitestown's historic downtown. There is ample parking in newly paved lots on the east and west sides of Main Street at the trail head.
