Confirmed from Trestle Bridge over Nickajack Creek's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.

Beautiful bridge which is a prt of Silver Comet Trail crossing over Nickajack creek. From the close-by parking lot off Concord road you can take short downward trail to the creek.
Love the trail and surrounding areas. Beware: vehicle was broken into here. Not the park’s fault, obviously. There are no cameras.
This is a very nice trail for walking, biking and running and very family friendly. The trail is mostly in the shade providing a break from a lot of the sun and summer heat.
About a four mile walk from the house on the Silver Comet Trail... A few moments of peace before headed back. A healthy 8 mile walk.
