Geocache Description:

Welcome to the Hebron Trail

The Hebron Trail connects to the Prairie Trail on the east through North Branch Conservation Area near Richmond and runs 7 miles west to Church Street in Hebron.


About the Trail

The Hebron Trail was built on the former Kenosha Division Railroad that carried passengers, mail and freight from Kenosha, WI to Rockford, IL. The K.D. line ran from 1860 until its final voyage in 1939.

Traveling West from the parking lot takes you through rural farmland, open meadows and past the wetland complex of the Goose Lake Conservation Area (not open to the public).
