Montevallo Parks Trail

The Montevallo Parks Trail is a 1.9 mile long walking trail connecting Orr Park and Stephens Park in Montevallo. It includes a section along the banks of a small lake on the campus of the University of Montevallo. It was dedicated on April 26, 2009.

The trail was constructed by the city, which supported the volunteer efforts of Terry Arnold and Buddy Freeman. Shelby County, the Alabama Department of Transportation and the University also participated in planning and implementation.

A committee is considering plans to extend the trail to Aldrich, Falling Rock Falls, Davis Falls, American Village and Ebenezer Swamp.
