Franklinville
Before you go: Use Riverside Park or Rising Sun Way access and check the town’s information for your intended segment. The regional guide describes wide crushed gravel at the Riverside Park trailhead; wheelchair suitability depends on surface firmness, weather and individual equipment. Nearby Faith Rock has steep inclines, rocks and roots.

Riverside Park adds a ballfield, playground and picnic facilities. Walking and bicycling use the river corridor during daylight. The footbridge at the park’s west end leads toward the more rugged Faith Rock outing. Do not assume separate Deep River trail sections across the county are connected.
