The Buttermilk Falls Trail is a joint city-county venture that leads visitors to downtown Brandenburg through a wooded, scenic area along Flippins Run Creek.
Brandenburg Mayor Bryan Claycomb says the city wants to make sure the experience is available to everybody.
“What we’ve decided to do is on the first Saturdays of the month during the summer we will provide ATV/side-by-sides for folks who otherwise might not be able to get to experience the trail,” said Claycomb. “They might not be physically able to walk it, so we will provide people with their motorized tour of the Buttermilk Falls Trail.”
Claycomb says the city park has a lot to offer, and vehicle access to the trail is another way of showing that off.
“We recognize that there are people that might not otherwise have an opportunity to experience them, so we want to do that so that we can help them,” Claycomb said. “There’s a lot of activities going on at our city park on any typical weekend, but this is just a little something extra that some folks who are involved with the Buttermilk Falls Trail Committee have decided to lend a hand and to make sure other folks have a chance to try it.”
Anybody who would like to take advantage of the opportunity can go to Brandenburg’s Riverfront Park this Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon.
