Please park in the parking lot and walk down the hi-line. The trail
will veer off to the left. Wear long sleeves and long pants and
spray with bug spray. This is a beautiful trail. The markers have
been damaged due to Hurricane Rita so mark your coords from the
parking lot on your GPS so you can find your way back. You will be
looking for an ammo can with a log book, pencils and other goodies.
Trail Between the Lakes is a 28-mile hiking trail that winds
through the Sabine National Forest. It extends from Lakeview
Recreation Area on Toledo Bend Reservoir to US 96 within sight of
the easternmost point of Sam Rayburn Reservoir . The trail is the
result of efforts between the Golden Triangle Group of the Sierra
Club and the USDA Forest Service in Texas . Hikers can see
different plant communities, interesting topography, wildlife,
beautiful scenery, and various forest management activities. A
portion of the trail is adjacent to Toledo Bend Reservoir, and many
portions lie along streams or special wildlife areas. The trail
crosses roads at a number of locations, so it's easy to plan
shorter hikes of varying lengths. The trail is designated for
hiking only; horses, off-road vehicles, and mountain bikes are not
allowed. There are many opportunities to camp in primitive or
natural settings along the route. Camping is not allowed in the
Moore Plantation Wildlife Management Area during deer hunting
season or in colonies of red-cockaded woodpeckers, which are an
endangered species. Woodpecker colony boundaries are marked with
aqua-green paint and boundary signs. Check out "Cache Between the
Lakes" and "The Hike Begins" while there.
