About the Knobstone Trail
The Knobstone Trail (other called the Little AT, or in short KT) is the longest footpath in Indiana, stretching from Dream Lake Trailhead to Spurgeon Hollow Trailhead. It follows the Knobstone Escarpment, which means that even though it's on a fairly flat terrain, the trail itself can be a bit difficult as it involves climbing a descending a lot of hills and a fair bit of elevation gain. When hiking the Knobstone Trail, you'll see some good views of the surrounding areas, covered with thick forests. It's one of Indiana's most popular hiking trails and a popular destination for hikers and campers.
