Horse Trail

Anne Springs Close Greenway

(Rock Hill, SC)

Description: This carefully planned trail system meanders through a park-like 2,200-acre woodland north of Fort Mill. Two loops, one on either side of Steele Creek provide approximately 12 miles of yellow blazed trail, and an additional series of connector trails total approximately 14.5 miles of clay surface with some loam. You will ride through peach orchards, circle three lakes, two ponds, and cross the meandering Steele Creek. At Lake Haigler you will cross a land bridge where you may see blue herons, beavers, and wood ducks. If you start at the main entrance, you will ride for a short time on the Old Nation Ford Road where American Revolutionary War soldiers and Confederate armies once traveled from Pennsylvania to the Catawba Indian Nation, and finally on to the Mississippi River.

Length: Approximately 14.5 miles.
