Alert
ATVS are prohibited on the trail.
The Heart of Iowa Nature Trail is a cooperative effort of the Story and Marshall County Conservation Boards. The 33 mile segment of the former Milwaukee Railroad from Melbourne to Slater forms this recreational trail corridor.
This trail is part of the American Discovery Trail (ADT) which passes through several metropolitan areas and incorporates many trails as it passes from the East Coast to the West Coast of the United States. The ADT in Iowa begins at Council Bluffs and follows the Raccoon River Valley, Des Moines River Greenway, Heart of Iowa Nature, Cedar Valley, and Hoover Nature Trail. It crosses the Mississippi River at Davenport.
