Excursion Loop
You travel on paved and gravel roads on this 13-mile loop which begins by continuing to go south on County Road L12 after the Byway Spine turns off at County Road E16. This passes between two spurs of the Loess Hills and across the valley of the Lilttle Sioux River.
Almost 5.5 miles after starting this loop, turn left (northeast) at Nutmeg Avenue.
About two miles on Nutmeg Avenue is its junctions with Oak Avenue which goes both to the right (southeast) and straight ahead (northeast); go straight ahead.
Less than 1 mile later, turn right (east) at 160th Street and stay on 160th Street. Along the way, 160th Street traverses part of the Loess Hills Wildlife Management Area.
When you meet Olive Arvenue, turn right (southeast) and follow the avenue to County Road L20 -- the Byway Spine -- less than two miles later.
At County Road L20, turn right (southwest) onto County Road L20 which will eventually lead you east, to Castana, a bit more than 2 miles away.
Allow about 30 minutes to drive this loop.
