The Goethe State Forest Apex Trailhead is a beautiful location with over 40 miles of marked equestrian trails! You will be able to enjoy some amazing scenery on wide well-marked trails.
We always strive to use public land so that we can inspire others to use the trails, this keeps funding available and will allow us amazing places to ride our horses for years to come!
