Spadra Creek Nature Trail - Iron Bridge Trail Head

From the Iron Bridge off of South Rogers Street to the Maple St. Trailhead is one-half mile. This may be the most beautiful section of trail, and is accessed by the stairs at the Iron Bridge and follows along the creek. The trail then enters the forest, crosses two wooden foot bridges, passes a picnic area, crosses another foot bridge, then proceeds up slate hill to the Maple St. Trailhead. From Maple St. the trail continues north eight-tenths of a mile to the Main St. bridge.  This part of the trail was constructed as a bridle path by the Civilian Conservation Corps during the 1930s. This section of the trail passes the Poplar St. access which is a 200 ft. steep gravel stairway built by the local Boy Scouts.
