Print Friendly MapPart of the seven-mile network of trails in Little Buffalo State Park, two small sections of rail-trail form the Newport and Sherman's Valley Railroad Trace. Each rail-trail section is signed with directional arrows rather than named signs.
The western section of rail trail is part of the longer Little Buffalo Creek Trail, which can also be used for cross country skiing.
The Newport and Sherman's Valley Railroad Trace is accessible from several parking lots in Little Buffalo State Park.
The western section is accessible from Swimming Pool Rd. while the eastern section of trail is best accessed near the ampitheater. Please see TrailLink Map for all parking options and detailed directions.
While in the area, at Little Buffalo State Park, we visited this trail. Trailhead and parking below the dam. There is a covered bridge and old mill there. Trail is flat and goes approx 1 mile. Surface is gravel. Interesting stop to see the historical items. We were there the end of December and the trail was decorated for a Christmas Holiday walking tour. In the state park there are picnic areas and a swimming pool up above the lake.
