Camp Mack is owned by the PA Dutch Council of the Boy Scouts of America. Please be respectful of all camp activities and stay out of occupied areas on camp weekends and weeks during the summer.

Check SAMBA's website for maps, closure dates, hunting dates, etc. at sambabiker.com/samba/camp-m…. Please sign in at the ranger's station located at the entrance to 501 upon arrival.

Description

Explorer Lodge Trail veers left where the Horseshoe Trail veers right, and continues as singletrack until it passes through a switchback and climbs to the top of the hill, where it opens up into a doubletrack fire road.

It connects to many other trails, and eventually ends on South Camp Road. A main artery in Camp Mack's trail network!
