Summary:
Hitchcock Woods in Aiken, South Carolina, is among the largest urban forests in the nation, with about 2,100 acres of forestland resources. The trails are open to the public, on horseback or on foot, from dawn to dusk 365 days a year. Admission is free of charge, thanks to donor support.
With its marked trail network of over 70 miles, Hitchcock Woods offers many different riding opportunities in a 2,000 acre sandy woodland within the city limits of Aiken. Although open to the public, the Hitchcock Foundation manages the land as a preserve. Primarily trails and old, sandy roads, the area is open to equestrians, hikers, dog walkers, joggers, and horses with carriages. There are also designated hunt trails with fences for equestrians.
Bicycles and motorized vehicles are not permitted.
Difficulty: Easy to Moderate
Fees: There are no fees, but donations to the Hitchcock Foundation are welcome.
