In a heavily wooded and fairly mountainous region of Nebraska, the Platte River State Park is situated along the Platte River and nearby both cities of Lincoln and Omaha. The trail begins by traveling along the ridge and then spending the majority of the time climbing and descending through technical areas of dense woodland. Be cautious while on the adventure as it can host bikers, hikers, and other types of users simultaneously. Note that a state park permit is required for entry, and bikers are not allowed from Memorial Day - October before 4:00 PM due to horseback riders.
