Oak Creek Trail is a former Union Pacific Railroad corridor in the eastern part of the state. The trail is only about an hour from both Omaha and Lincoln.

The Long Cane Horse Trail is located in the northern part of the Long Cane Ranger District.

Numerous access points and a convenient cut-through enables riders to adjust the length and duration of their ride.
