Whittington Trail Details

Whittington Trail sits to the west of Bathhouse Row, off Whittington Avenue. The 1.2-mile gravel loop trail is quite popular with walkers and joggers. It was created in the 1800s as part of a formally landscaped park, and in the 1930s, the area hosted horseback riding and a series of summer concerts, which are still occasionally put on. The level, easy trail passes through park woodlands.
