Nice paved(asphalt) trail. There are some sites to see and a couple good spots to look out into the woods. One of our favorites due to the location-it links up with a couple of other bike paths so we can easily walk a good distance. There is a parking lot, but no facilities on site. Not the widest path which makes it difficult when passing others,especially with double stroller. It closes at sundown.

Cute shaded area to park. Looks like a shaded trail also

A really fascinating slice of history. This commemorates where thousands of Mormons traveled *on foot* (handcart) from Iowa to Utah in 1856. Several of them are buried here. Excellent plaques/info from LDS Church/University of Iowa. The trail is also really pretty, full of tall wildflowers. Wear bug spray; I got attacked by mosquitoes. ud83dude09ud83eudd9f

Interesting to think that the Mormon settlers walked from there all the way to Utah
