Blue River Rail TrailAddress:
8th Street and Jayhawk Road
Email Address: marysvillechamber@sbcglobal.net About this Exploration: Directions: At the U.S. 36 and 8th Street stop light, travel north approximately 1 mile. At the T in the road, turn left. Follow the road about 1/2 mile, which ends at the Trail Head.
Hours: The trail is open sun up to sun down.
Winding through wooded areas, grassland vistas and fields of corn and soybeans, the Blue River Rail Trail offers views of the river, wildlife sightings and the music of songbirds. The 2-mile stretch is built on the former right-of-way of the Union Pacific Railroad with a surface of crushed limestone screenings. Two bridges and a small covered bridge adorn the trail that continues on to the Harvest Road Trail Head. Past that point, the trail is still under development, but will eventually join the Homestead Trail at the Nebraska State Line.
