Eggner’s Ferry Bridge/Western Half of the LBL Scenic Central Hardwoods Trail

Eggner’s Ferry Bridge/Western Half of the LBL Scenic Central Hardwoods Trail, 6 miles, moderate, requires car shuttle. We will walk on the pedestrian walkway across the 3495 feet long Eggner’s Ferry Bridge on a concrete surface to the Scenic Central Hardwoods Trail. The Eggner’s Ferry Bridge carries US 68 and KY Route 80 across Kentucky Lake. It opened in 2016 after the original bridge was hit by a barge in 2012 and collapsed. We will continue on the Scenic Hardwood Trail to the Golden Pond Visitors Center. There are Restrooms and a museum at the Visitors Center. The Scenic Hardwood Trail is a well engineered trail through upland hardwoods. The surface is finely crusted limestone. Meet 7:00 A.M. CT at Kroger parking area, Dover Crossing Road, Clarksville. ∼58 miles to trail head.
