The Old Gordon trail was originally a toll road used to move stock and timber. The road was built in the 1880s by a man named John Gordon. The toll road fell out of use with the completion of the Broadway Bridge and the Serpents Trail. Some sections of the trail still show signs of use from the wagons.
