Sand Creek Conservation Area

Sand Creek Conservation Area is located about 4 miles south of Decatur and is primarily known for its hiking and horse trails that wind through forest, open prairie, and floodplain. In addition to wildlife and natural habitat, part of the historic Paris-Springfield Road passes through the grounds.

We will hike about 4 miles and will have a few creek crossings. There are usually stone steps to cross on, but be prepared for wet feet just in case. There are pit toilets available at the trailhead.

The apres will be at Mi Casa Mexican Cuisine in Mt. Zion. It is posted in a separate event and requires a separate RSVP.
