The Calloway Creek Trail Area explores the forested land to the north of the Peavy Arboretum and includes the Intensive Management Trail, Calloway Creek Trail and the 540-547 Connector Trail. These trails provide access between Peavy Arboretum, Cronemiller Lake, and parking areas on the 540 and 547 roads and are very popular routes for trail runners. Because Calloway Creek and Intensive Management Trails are closed seasonally to bicycles and year-round to equestrians, the 540-547 Connector Trail was created to allow horse riders and mountain bikers to bypass these trails to access the rest of the McDonald Forest any time of year.
