Great trail, woods, and open fields. Unimproved with dirt, and grass surfaces. The burial mound is very solemn yet beautiful and peaceful location.

Nice trail that connects to the Dripping Rock trail (even though it doesn’t appear to on the park map). The Highbanks Metropark Mound 1 (aka Adena Indian mound, North Mound, Muma Mound) is in a meadow adjacent to the trail. There is a mowed path to the top. Beautiful view of the Mound and meadow.
