Route and access notes

A crushed-limestone rail-trail from Valparaiso through Loma to Brainard in Nebraska. This page assesses the named Oak Creek Trail for mixed-surface cycling and uses a state-qualified canonical slug to avoid confusion with other trails of the same name.

Planning this route

The connected mapped route is 20.6 km, close to the operator's 13.2-mile description. The source is gravel throughout and follows the abandoned railway alignment. The operator notes a restroom at Loma; verify opening, water and transport before relying on facilities.

Access and source limitations

Check the Great Plains Trail Network page and local notices for current surface work, weather closures and facility availability. Road crossings and trailheads require normal on-site judgment; Loamcast does not provide navigation or access permission.
