Bernheim Arbortetum Hike-Bike Trail

Gravel route from Happy Hollow Rd to State Hwy 1604, Shepherdsville, Bullitt County, Kentucky

"From the Bernheim Arboretum Website: "This trail follows the course of Long Lick Creek via a paved and gravel trail. It passes through the old Clermont quarry, a section of Old Highway 245, and ends near the Bullitt/Nelson County Line. To finish, you can continue on back roads or turn around to return to the trailhead. This trail is handicap accessible. Access from Happy Hollow Road, located across Highway 245 just east of Bernheim’s main entrance." Recommend using the trailhead parking lot at the western end of the trail, near the Jim Beam Distillery. Parking at the east end is nothing more than a spot for a few vehicles on the shoulder of the road (SR1604). The trail is an out-and-back. It lies in a little strip of land Bernheim owns on the north side of 245/Clermont Road."
