Welcome to the Brandon Trailhead! There is no trail pass required to ride the trail in this area. However shortly after the Brandon trailhead if you're going towards Marion; Linn County will require you to have a trail pass. This is the last stop on the Black Hawk County Conservation Board portion of the Cedar Valley Nature Trail. This area is not paved. There is a male/female restroom facility located here in addition to a small shelter.

While we do not require a trail pass we have converted the old pass registration boxes into trail donation posts. There is one of these located at the Brandon Trailhead. These should contain donation envelops where you can make your donation.If you appreciate the trail and wish to see it continue please make a donation.
