Outlet Multipurpose Trail at Pomme de Terre Lake

Posted: 19 Dec 2008
The Outlet Multipurpose Trail is result of a partnership agreement that was signed on January 7th, 2008, between the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Hickory County Community Improvement Coalition, Hickory County Health Department, and the Hermitage R-4 Schools. Funding for this project has been a joint effort.

The trail is now 70% completed and is open for walking, biking, and jogging.
When complete the trail will be 3.2 miles long. The finished surface consists of rolled limestone aggregate compacted over a layer of 2" rock.

This past year the Hermitage High School Cross Country Team hosted two cross county meets in the Outlet Park. It is anticipated that the trail will be used extensively in the future for Cross County training by area athletics.

A grand opening is planned on April 4, 2009. More information will be posted closer to that date.
