I'm seeing a few different loops for the trail, but everything I read says the trail is 5 miles long. Can anyone tell me exactly how long each loop is and which loop is the 5 mile one?

I'm actually not really sure how long each loop is. I know they are not well marked. I suggest you go early so no matter what you are back before dark. Two people in our family got lost (no fun, really scary).

There are many loops at the park. The largest paved loop is 5k. There are also 2k and approximately 3k loops. You can also mix it up once you are familiar with the park.
