Trail Vibe

The St. John Trail is a residential walking path that takes advantage of real estate used by giant transmissions towers. It links Homestead Acres Park all the way over to Midwest Training. The first part of the trail winds around a pond, picnic shelter, and playground. It crosses Bull Run Creek and follows that for a little while before turning west towards White Oak. It is lined by houses and runs under the power lines, past a giant electric substation, and crosses White Oak.
