Persimmon Loop Trail

Persimmon Loop Trail strikes a balance between effort and ease. It is just enough of a challenge to get your blood moving, but not so strenuous that you cannot enjoy the peaceful forest around you. At a little over six miles, it winds through hardwoods and gentle ridges, where you’re more likely to hear a woodpecker than see another person. The quiet here is real; it settles in.

The trail has a natural rhythm. Long stretches without distraction let your mind wander, but then a curve or slope pulls you back into the moment. There is not much flash here, no dramatic overlooks or cliffside vistas, but there is something steadying about walking among tall trees for a while. If you are looking for clarity or just some breathing room, this trail delivers.
