The trail is part of the overall cross country trail system for day use by both hikers and bikers. The Fantasy Forest turns into a magical interactive, illuminated walk at night. Guided by a lantern, the forest comes alive at night as it turns on thousands of lights to guide your trek through the Fantasy Forest. This Trail is One Way.
