Fontenelle forest offers a great variety of hiking habitats, from flood plain forests, to wooded marsh lands, to hills (some steep!). Nestled between an oxbow bend in the Missouri River, this is an excellent location to view wildflife. Additionally, the visitor center offers nice exhibits and a boardwalk into the forest. If you are looking to get away from the busier visitor center trails, consider driving towards the Gifford Farm and hike the flood plain and marshes.

especially nice int he fallby Yahoo | 2005-02-04 20:29:41 |

Great Hiking for the region. Not much offered in this area but in the fall especially this is a beautiful set of trails. Spring is also a great time to go. summer hiking is not too hot with the great canopy.
