Summary:
Just off of I-85, at the South Carolina-Georgia border, you’ll find Lake Hartwell State Park. This is a 3/4-mile nature trail with scenic views located within the park.
On this short, hilly, out-and-back dirt path through a quiet forest of pine and oak, you will wind along a ravine and creek, and pass scenic views of Lake Hartwell. As you climb steep terraces constructed by farmers who harvested crops on this land generations ago, watch for snakes, green lizards, squirrels, fox, a variety of birds, and other wildlife amid fern and brightly colored wild flowers. When the trail ends at the park road, you have the option of returning the way you came, or turning right on the paved park road to loop back to the parking area.
Camping: Call 1-866-345-PARK (7275) or go online at www.SouthCarolinaParks.com to make your reservations today!
Directions:From Exit 1 on I-85 near Fair Play: Drive north on SC 11. The entrance is .5 mile on the left. Drive to the first parking area on the left near the pavilion. The trailhead is located between two wooden posts at the parking area.
