Trail Overview
Old Plantation Access Road, also named Cape Girardeau County Road 485, is a gravel road in Millersville, Missouri, that also doubles as a Missouri Department of Conservation land access road. The road features beautiful rolling hills and farmland scenery in the bottoms, with two low-water bridges that have water crossing potential when rain is in the area. It's a good smooth drive that could have mild mounding and washboarding at its worst but seems to be very well maintained. There are two gravel parking lots along the gravel road to park for the specific use of the Conservation Land. One is small and the other is large. Summarized, a beautiful gravel road with good views, places to gather and plan an offroading outing, and a great break-in road for a day of offroading when headed west on Missouri-72.
