Hike Caney Loop Trail at Cave Run Lake

Starting at the Stoney Cove Trailhead, take the trail to the left. This trail was previously marked as trail #1226. However, after the Sheltowee Trace Trail #100 was rerouted, they now run together. Therefore, the trail is very well marked by a white diamond with a turtle, signifying the Sheltowee Trace. This trail follows the shoreline of Cave Run Lake, offering great views, for 6.2 miles before turning inland, following the Caney Creek embayment. A well marked intersection will indicate the final leg of the trail. At this intersection, you will turn right, back towards Stoney Cove. This inland portion marked by a white diamond is 2.6 miles long, returning you to your starting point. 

Keep in mind that this is a multi-use trail and sees a good bit of horse traffic. Make sure to be prepared for mud! Maps can be found at the Cumberland District Ranger Office which is very near the Trailhead!
