Today’s Parks Pick Me Up highlights our longest bikeable greenway, the Frisco Highline Trail, spanning 35 miles from Springfield to Bolivar. Frisco Highline Trail Manager John Montgomery, who works for Ozark Greenways, tells us more about the trail, called FHT for short. The trail is the second-longest rail trail in the state, named for the former Frisco Highline railroad line that traveled this route years ago. It was designated a National Recreation Trail by the National Park Service and American Trails in 2004. All Ozark Greenway trails are open daily, sunrise to sunset.

Please be smart while visiting any park or trail: stay six feet away from others, avoid gathering in groups, cover your coughs and sneezes, and stay home if you’re showing symptoms of illness. Happy Physical Distance Cycling!
