Trail lovers can mark their calendars for noon on Wednesday, November 28, when the Hot Springs Parks & Trails Department will dedicate the newest portion of the Hot Springs Creek Greenway Trail. Just like Phase 2 was dubbed “The Blue Heron Trail” (dedicated in 2015) this particular portion has been dubbed “The Happy Ole Troll Trail” since it goes over AND under Golf Links Road.
Formally known as the Utility Service Center Trail, Phase 3, this trail marks the halfway point of the city’s 4.2-mile greenway.
This is the fifth section of the trail that starts at Transportation Depot, 100 Broadway Terrace, and travels along the Hot Springs Creek corridor. It runs from Chelsea Street along Adams Street back behind the Utility Service Center and behind the AA Storage to Golf Links.
The public is encouraged to attend and celebrate this highly-anticipated portion of trail that travels over and under Golf Links Road, offering a woodland setting that contrasts with some of the urban sections of the greenway. Parking will be available at the corner of Seneca and Adams streets, and light refreshments will be served. For information call 501-321-6871.
