This trail is a combination of machine built flow, hand built sections, and pre-existing corridors. One of the final phases of the Moose Haven connector project, this section of the connection further cuts down the transfer time on both Victory and Flower Brook Roads between the Flower Brook Trail and Moose Haven for a true long distance backcountry trail ride
