| Trail Description |
Smithville Lake offers 26 miles of horse/primitive hiking trails on the southeast side of the lake. The trail begins at Crows Creek Campground and ends in Arley, Missouri. The area features a mix of rolling and flat terrain with many creek crossings. Fields of native warm-season grasses, wildflowers and row crops are scattered among the timbered areas. Orange indicators mark the shoreline trail and white indicators mark the boundary trail. Lettered locator posts have been placed along the trail to help riders reference their location on the map. The trails east of Collins Road are located within Public Hunting Areas. Please use caution during hunting seasons. |
