In this video we'll hike the Bates Ferry Trail located in Congaree National Park. The Bates Ferry Trail was once used as a causeway for the ferry system in the 1800's to early 1900's to ferry people and goods across the Congaree River. The Bates Ferry Trail head is located about 15 miles from the main park entrance of Congaree National Park. Join me as we hike and explore the Bates Ferry Trail in Congaree National Park
