One
of the best ways to discover our natural areas is to hike one of our trails.
They may lead you to the top of a Loess Hi
ll prairie, along the Little Sioux
River Valley, or over a suspension bridge. Trails vary in length from 1/4 mile
to four miles. Although primarily hiking trails, cross-country skis, snowshoes,
and horses are allowed on some trails. A self-guided interpretive trail and
suspension bridge is located at Southwood Conservation Area, near Smithland,
Iowa. Trails around the Dorothy Pecaut Nature Center are for foot traffic only,
but connect with nearly 10 miles of hiking and multi-use trails found within
Stone State Park in Sioux City, Iowa.
