MOUNTAIN VIEW TRAIL, BLUE KNOB STATE PARK
Come out and join us for this 5-mile hike on Mountain View Trail at Blue Knob State Park. After our hike, we'll down to the Clubhouse at Blue Knob All Season's Resorts for great food.
Ever thought about hammock camping? We'll be doing a complete hammock hang demonstration across from the Clubhouse. We'll show you the proper way to hang a hammock and go over what gear is needed to enjoy a beautiful night of hammock camping in Pennsylvania. The trail makes a short, 0.9-mile ‘Look Out’ loop before crossing the Three Springs Trail again. It then descends along Beaverdam Creek before extending along the eastern slope of the mountain to Willow Springs Picnic Area. The trail then proceeds north along an old waterline to Deep Hollow Run and climbs the mountain to the trailhead.
The ‘Look Out’ loop is suitable for the whole family, but the remainder of the trail is recommended only for adults in good hiking condition. Proper footgear (boots) is a must because the terrain is steep and rugged.
Please sign up so we know how many hikers to expect. We will be heading out for the hike at 11:10 am. We look forward to having you join us!
COST: FREE! This MEET & GREET is for you to meet other hikers, learn more about HBF Outdoors, and find out what Blue Knob All Season's Resort has to offer the outdoor community.
We will meet that the Clubhouse parking lot at 11:00 a.m. before heading to the trail.
If weather conditions change to thunderstorms and or severe conditions, we will cancel the event and re-schedule. We will keep you updated with weather conditions!
