Directions from Hanover, PA: Take York Street / SR 116 out of town heading east. Travel about 1 mile turning right (south) onto SR 216 and traveling about 2.5 miles to the park entrance. After crossing the lake, take the first road on the right. When the road forks, take a left back into the campground area. The trail begins from behind the amphitheater. OR from SR 216 turn right onto Black Rock Road. Travel past the lake a short distance and you will see trailhead parking on your left.
Very narrow trails at places, especially with a large dog like mine but it's a nice easy trail. You can even take a short cut if you don't have time to hike the complete loop.
Awesome trail!
Not a whole lot to see and do along the trail. Some parts are a little mixed up with hunting trails and the trail markers aren't always legible. Overall a fairly short and easy hike.
Nice easy trail with various offshoots. Can get crowded at times especially the parking lot off Black Rock.
