Lockwoods Folly Trail

4.0 Miles     Easy/Moderate

Lockwood Folly Trail begins at the Blue Water Point Marina located at the end of West 57th Place. The trail follows a route southwest towards Lockwoods Folly Inlet. The trail follows the southern shore and passes southwest of a sandbar, and turns north towards the mouth of Sheep Island Gut. This small waterway meanders through the marsh for approximately 0.4 mile and can be utilized as a side trip. Lockwoods Folly Trail continues southwest towards the inlet following the northern shoreline. Near the intersection with the Intracoastal Waterway and the inlet, the trail turns south and follows the southern shoreline back to the intersection with Sheep Island Gut. The intersection of the Intracoastal Waterway and Lockwoods Folly is also the intersection of Lockwoods Folly Trail and Howells Point Trail. 

At the intersection of Lockwoods Folly Trail and Sheep Island Gut, Lockwoods Folly Trail follows the northern shore next to Sheep Island and crosses to the southern shoreline at the point across the creek from the Marina. Lockwoods Folly Trail is about 4.2 miles long.
