Horse
(Lee
State Natural Area)
Trail Map
Description:
Situated smack in the middle of South Carolina’s sandhills region, Lee
State Natural Area offers two loop trails between five and six miles
long that are of easy to moderate difficulty. Despite its sandy
surroundings, the park contains one of the best-preserved floodplain
swamps in the state, but that’s only partially why it remains such an
enjoyable destination. With ground cover ranging from marshy to sandy,
there are numerous opportunities for cooling off in small lakes and
artesian wells along the trail. The park also borders the Lynches
River, a designated scenic river. There is a bridle trail, show ring,
and stable within the park.
Horses do not have to be shod.
Insect repellent is
recommended during warm months.
Length:
There is a 7-mile equestrian-only loop and a 5-mile loop (road), which
is open to equestrians, hikers, bikers, and motorized vehicles.
Directions:
From Exit 123 on I 20 near Bishopville, drive north on Lee County Road
S-31-22. The park entrance is one mile on the left.
