About This Trail

Imported description

The loop hike has an old ruins at the halfway point. The hike was two hours. You can follow the yellow blazes when you first arrive at the trail. With young children, the first portion is easy to manage. Go left at the intersection if you're wanting to go to Elders Run. After you've gone a couple of hundred yards, the ruins will be on your right. Leave the bridge and follow the stream back to your starting point. If you intend on walking on the trail, you should bring appropriate footwear and bug proof clothes. There is a large amount of parking on the side of the street, which is enough for a few cars.
