As one of Nebraska's biggest cities, Omaha has its share of urban sprawl, but spend a little time in town and find museums, pleasant parks, plenty of places to tuck into for an Omaha steak and somewhat unexpectedly, an indoor rainforest.
This trail is designated a National Recreational Trail and is very popular among local residents. On weekends the parking area often fills up. Stock animals and mountain bikes are not allowed on this trail. The Meadows Loop Trail branches off the main Greyrock Trail and rejoins it near the base of Greyrock. The trail offers great views of the plains to east.
