Summerset Trail, National Recreation Trail in Warren County, Iowa, US
The Summerset Trail extends 11.1 miles between Carlisle and Indianola, passing through prairies, wetlands, and woodland areas along the Middle River.
The trail occupies a former railway corridor that connected local communities, transforming transportation infrastructure into recreational space in the early 2000s.
Regular community events and outdoor activities along the trail foster connections between residents of Carlisle and Indianola throughout all seasons.
Three main trailheads at Carlisle, Banner Lakes, and Indianola provide parking facilities, while restrooms and water fountains ensure visitor comfort.
The northern section presents flat terrain through wetland conservation areas, transitioning to rolling hills as it approaches the Middle River crossing.
