PAGE 3 of 3 - Trailhead Park in Carroll County, Indiana Part of the Delphi Historic Trail |
| Trailhead Park is located south
of Delphi on State Highway 25, adjacent to Deer Creek. The area includes
a picnic shelter and tables, grills, and water as well as access to fishing
and canoeing. A suspension bridge connects the park with the Delphi Historic
Trails system.
This site originally provided the material for the causeway that supports State Highway 25 above the flood plain. Purchase, design, construction, and rehabilitation of the grounds were made possible by a 1990 Wabash River Heritage Fund Grant. |
