At the north end of the Ten Mile River Bike Path there is a large wooded area along the shores of the river. There is an out and back primitive trail that runs northerly towards the ruins of Lebanon Mills. The trail, a work in progress, is being improved by members of the Ten Mile River Watershed Council. Blazes have recently been added along parts of the trail. From the parking area at Tomlinson Field make your way down the bike path a few hundred feet. A trail-head appears to the left, turn and follow it and stay to the right at the trail split. The trail comes to a large open area by a pond. Stay to the right and make your way slightly uphill and to the left. You will come to the well defined trail once again. From here the trail is easy to follow as it skirts the shores of the river to its end at the ruins of Lebanon Mills. From here retrace your steps back to the parking area.
