Horse Trail


The trail leaves Epley, heading west toward Sumrall. Note the 
horse and mountain bike trail (just to the right of the paved trail). 
This side trail covers 25 miles from Epley to Carson.

groups of riders to change directions on th eTrace.


The horse trail is on both sides of the Trace at the Turns.

 


In Bassfield, John Kerley of 4K Stables has installed a shady rest stop
 for horses, complete with hitching posts and watering trough

A group of riders makes the water crossing just west of Sumrall
This group is from Word of Faith Christian Center, Hattiesburg, MS.
They had a Father, Son, & Big Brother outing @ Circle S Riding Stables
and then spent the afternoon riding on the trail. The group consisted of
22 riders on horseback and two golf carts (not pictured).
