2012 Trail Between the Lakes Hike

May 4th, 5th, & 6th

Hike one, two, or three days!

This is probably the most accommodating 28 mile 3 day hike that you can imagine. You can hike one, two, or all three days or any combination. This trail is in the Sabine National Forest and connects Lake Sam Rayburn and Toledo Bend Reservoir.

You can backpack if you choose or elect to camp with the group in a designated camping area. Hikers will shuttle back to the camp site at the end of each day’s hike.

Don’t want to camp! Stay at the Fin & Feather or park your RV or camper at an RV park and meet us each morning for the day’s hike. This trip is designed to accommodate all levels of hikers. 

See the Trail Between the Lakes tab on this web site for map and video.
