How to get there:
Enter the west gate of the Fort Leavenworth Military Reservation (Any picture ID required). The grassy area to the left is the start of the trail. Go behind the houses over a paved road and in about 20-30 meters, take a left onto a single track trail. You are there!

This trail no longer exists. The growth and construction on post has covered some, while the rest had been grown over. If you want to cut trail, I recommend doing it elsewhere as I live at what was once the trailhead. I go to SMP and Smithville instead.

Hard to find the start now that Fort security changed and build a fence, but average once you are on it. A few fun spots, but relatively flat
