The 3.8-mile Warner Creek Pathway, a one- loop trail, meanders through the rugged terrain of Hardwood Hills in the Mackinaw State Forest. While some sections may present a challenge, the overall difficulty is moderate. The trail's proximity to O'Brien's Pond increases moisture levels, making it primarily a winter activity trail.
