British Camp Trail
Length: 1.0 miles
Type: Hiking Trial

Description: The British Camp Trail starts from the parking area near the park office and Visitor Center, and loops through what was once the property of the Musgrove family, which was briefly occupied by the British in the summer of 1780. Outdoor panels mark several points of interest along the trail, including the ruins of the Musgrove house, the location of the 18th century ford that was crucial to the British in establishing a post at the Musgrove’s, and the site of the Musgrove’s grist mill on the Enoree River. Scenic views of the Enoree River are visible from this trail, and it is teeming with local wildlife year-round.
