Simple Tables are available to easily add tables to your page. This allows more "logical" and compact addition of simple tables to the page. You can also type out a table in a spreadsheet and save the content as a comma delimited or tab delimited file and paste it between the table commands. Tab delimited is useful if you want to use commas in the text. Excel's "Save as..." includes an option to save as either tab or comma delimited text files. After saving it, open the created text file, then paste the contents between the tab open and close commands. See the link for details but most usage is likely as follows (omit "sep=comma" if the data is tab delimited):
<tab class=wikitable sep=comma head=top> Head 1,Head 2,Head 3 Field 4,Field 5,Field 6 Field 7,Field 8,Field 9 </tab>

{{Trail Map}} __TOC__ ==Trail Overview== A long loop following the Cherokee Lake shoreline and up along River Ridge hillside. Designated for both horses and hikes, but due to lack of maintenance over several years currently impassable for horses with some challenges for hikers. ==How To Get There== For horses, begin at the horse trail parking area to take 2.6 mile connector trail (for 8.4 miles start-to-finish). For hikers, best to begin at Spoone Recreation Area to take Lost Road Trail over to horse connector trail. ==Route Description== Below description is for hikers with the required connections to show the day hike is roughly five and half miles long. {| class="wikitable" |- !

Appears no maintenance performed in several years. In September 2020, only impressions and deposits for one horse down to the first beach on the connector trail. Older hoof impressions seen in the clay soil elsewhere. Growth along the path very thick in places, including kudzu taking over edges of an open area. At least one hillside portion of the trail has collapsed, thus will need to be rerouted. Maple Arch Trail can be hiked, but with understanding that many blowdowns will need to be crossed or worked around. ==Miscellaneous Information== Park beaches are regularly visited by boaters as trash was collected and removed. However, these are the primary draw for this trail to enjoy the views. ==Gallery== {{Park trail gallery|Trail={{PAGENAME}}}}
