Event information

Trail is on crushed rock trail with some paved street. Soon to be part of The Great American Rail-Trail, the White River Trail has stunning views of tree-covered buttes and crosses the White River on former railroad bridges. It connects Crawford, NE to Fort Robinson State Park, a park filled with history from the surrender of Crazy Horse, Buffalo Soldiers and a German prisoner-of-war camp during WWII. Leashed dogs are welcome on the trail. Fort Robinson is filled with history and has some great overnight options if you are looking for a place to stay. Trail may not be plowed in the winter
