The Steamboat Trace Trail remains closed from Peru south to the Honey Creek Bridge due to wildfire damage from late March. Due to the extent of the damage and ongoing safety concerns, we do not yet have an estimated reopening date for this section.

Barricades are posted at the closure—please respect and abide by them for your safety.

The remainder of the trail is open for use. We will share updates as they become available on this closed section.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation!
