Description
Very nice easy to moderate hike through constantly changing scenery. Cross 4 streams that have very good water. At 2.5 miles there is a "wow" view from a rocky overlook and several camp sites nearby. The trail ends at Fisher Springs Run Trail, which has 2 good campsites near by. Along the trail you will pass several old wildlife food plots, a few of these make nice campsites. The trail was "cut back" last year (2000) and is pretty open. The treadway follows an old RR grade and can be rocky and a little wet in places. Very scenic hike.

Directions to Hike
