Thanks for the excellent feature, but Yellow River State Forest actually has 48 miles of hiking trails many of which are multi-use trails that can be used by bikers and equestrians as well! You can learn more at friendsofyellowriverstateforest.org or on the DNR website

Thanks so much for the correction - This area of Iowa is incredible! Are all or part of the 48 miles well maintained?

They are all regularly maintained. In the event of heavy rains or high winds it sometimes takes forestry crews a bit to catch up, but other than that they are ready for use! Multi-use trails are closed to equestrians during the winter months and during wet conditions.
