Summary:

The Wild Mint Nature Trail is a one-mile, self-guided nature trail located at Baker Creek State Park.

Loading Trails

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.

Camping: Call 1-866-345-PARK (7275) or go online at www.SouthCarolinaParks.com to make your reservations today!

Directions:

From McCormick: Take US 378 W for 3 miles, take a right at the park sign, go 1 mile, then take a left at the park entrance.
