Trail is flat.<br />
Mixture of Road 75% and packed gravel. There is one section of single <br />
track dirt after you pass underneath I44. Trail head for this section is near <br />
equestrian parking area. <br />
You can stay on the inside route and it is all paved. If you take outer route <br />
along river you will run into the hard pack gravel.<br />
There are a couple of connector trails inside the outside loop.<br />
Perfect trail to introduce the kids to variety of surfaces.
Take I-44 to Lewis Road exit (266). Go past visitor center on one-lane bridge. <br /><br />Park on right. You can also access Route 66 Park, if heading east on I44 by <br /><br />taking exit 265, to Kircher Park, a small park on your right. Follow trail under <br /><br />I44 for .25 mile and you will run into Route 66 State Park.
