Need to Know
You'll come across a few stream crossings, an abandoned Oil Well, and a small cave. There is a Port-a-John at the Oak Land Trust Parking Lot. Additional parking is available near by at the Montour Rail Trail parking lot.
Description
Starting at the Hollow Oak Land Trust Parking Lot, head up the
Oil Well Trail which features an old abandoned oil well and a few small wooden bridges. This trail will put you on
Meeks Run Trail which follows along the stream which you'll cross then turn right onto the
Honeydew Trail which follows the ridges along the western side of the Conservation Area, eventually descending to connect up with the
Powerline Trail.
You'll climb up Powerline and stay to the left near the top to
Powerline Trail To
Hemlocks Trail Connector then take a sharp right to access the
Connector Trail (Hemlocks Spur). This will put you at what will look like an abandoned paved parking lot, which is actually an old Nike Missile Site in the 1950's. Continue on the
Connector Trail which takes you to the
Nike Trail.
Hang a right for
Lollypop Trail which is a short loop that connects you to
Highlands Trail. Next you'll use the short
Nike Trail to Highlands Trail Connector. At the top you'll turn right on
Fallen Oak Trail which is short but sweet. At the intersection, take
Hemlocks Trail for some fast and flowy singletrack that features some sharp switchbacks that carve your way back down.
Finally, at the bottom you'll go left on
Cave Trail named after the small cave in the hillside right before the river crossing. Climb the hill and you'll finish where you started at the Oak Land Trust Parking Lot.
