The Thompson Trail is the Township’s newest trail. It circles the fields of the Thompson Family’s farm between
Union Hill Road, Tinker Hill Lane and Tinker Hill Road. This gorgeous trail is wonderful for hikers and horses. The
trail’s blazes are white. It connects with the Horse Shoe Trail at Union Hill Road, at the power
lines / pipeline just up the hill from the overpass.
