CONTRIBUTED BY HORSESHOE BEND NATIONAL MILITARY PARK
HORSESHOE BEND —
Due to recent storm damage, Horseshoe Bend National Military Park (NMP) has temporarily rerouted a portion of the nature trail. Two bridges over stream crossings were damaged, making them unsafe to traverse until repaired. Until these bridges can be replaced, the nature trail will have a temporary detour onto the nearby administrative road. The detour is well marked so that hikers will be able to easily and safely navigate the trail.
“It’s important to keep our park visitors safe at all times,” said Horseshoe Bend NMP Superintendent Barbara Tagger. “Therefore, we have created a temporary detour of the park’s nature trail to ensure safe passage throughout the park.”
Please call the park at 255-234-7111 for further information.

Horseshoe Bend NMP is located 12 miles north of Dadeville on Alabama Highway 49.
