Seneca Trail (T12)

Join the Trail Otter Gang for our next Winter 50 Hike . We'll meet in the one-way street parking lot in downtown Nunda, kitty corner to the 7-11 gas station, leaving by 9:40am. The trailhead meeting location is on the corner of Oakland Road & River Road and we'll arrive by 9:50am to sign waivers and start hiking by 10am. Please do not try to park at the Trail 12 trailhead - a muddy mess. Trail 12 is a workout, as we drop straight down to the gorge bottom and return the straight up to River Road. Approximately 2.5 miles of hiking with steep climb out of the gorge. This trail allows hikers to explore abandoned foundations and see where the St. Helena bridge spanned the river.

Hope you can join us!
