German River

Trail Overview

This is a semi-challenging trail that winds through valleys along the German River. As you pass through the more densely vegetated portions of the lower valleys you can hear the German river if you leave a window down. When traveling south to north you start with some large puddles that make up much of this trail's challenge rating. The trail then progresses through tight and rough terrain with vegetation that will commonly touch both sides of your vehicle. Though there are no particular obstacles past the puddles the terrain is notably rough and 4wd is necessary. As you progress the trail becomes easier and there are several stream crossings until you come to a gravel road. Resist the urge to "let'er'rip" as the speed limit is 10mph and much of that portion has sheer dropoffs of over 40ft just off the road.

Difficulty

Larger puddles when starting from the south are very deep in the middle, try to skirt the outside as best as possible. The rest of the southern portion is rough and will require 4wd while the norther half is gravel road. Full size 4x4 is possible but not optimal and there will be a lot of squeezing.
