Description

Gnome Loop is nearly flat, 8 feet wide, and winds gently to the back of the Tolkien Trails, first through hardwoods, then returning back to Ring Loop across several ground level boardwalks over muddy areas, arcs through a small red pine plantation, skirts a small meadow, then back to hardwoods finally returning to Ring Loop.
