This trail uses the western half of the Berryman loop trail, adds a 12-mile section to the south to reach the Trace Creek Trail, and connects to the North into the trail at Huzzah Conservation Area. The trail south of the Courtois to Butts road is rocky along the creek, then follows a double-track road to the edge of Huzzah CA land.
Please note: The Ozark Trail through the Huzzah Conservation Area is foot-only: bicycles and horses are not allowed
to help protect wildlife.
