Hiking Trail

Wild Mint Nature

(Baker Creek State Park)

TrailMap


Description:
Enjoy scenic views on this short, occasionally steep, foot-traffic only, nature trail. Trail signs (green posts with white letters) will guide you on a pine needle covered path, which descends toward the lake, and then winds through the woods overlooking the shore. All through this area you may encounter a variety of birds, snakes, and other wildlife. Just past the footbridge you will walk uphill and cross the park road into a dense pine forest. After you re-cross the road, you will return to the start on the short spur near the beginning of the trail.
 

Remember to wear insect repellent in warm weather. Pets are permitted only on leashes. Restrooms are available at the campground area and at the pavilion/park office.

Length: 0.8 mile.

Directions: From McCormick drive west on US 378 and turn right at the park sign. Drive 1 mile and turn left and enter at the gate. Follow the signs to camping area 2. The trail is across from the restrooms
