The Arabia Mountain PATH runs (roughly) parallel to the South River for much of the paved trail's length - making for some really fun recreation opportunities. ...National Heritage Area visitor Christopher Dunlap recently biked along the PATH from Lorraine Park to Klondike, then paddled his bike on a packraft back down the South River to his car! "Definitely my favorite section of the river!" Chris said. Thanks for sharing your story Chris. The Arabia Mountain PATH is a part of the PATH Foundation's regional trail system and connects sites throughout the NHA; you can learn more about recreation on the South River from the South River Watershed Alliance.
