Moraine State Park
Length: 1.9 or 3.0 miles
Rating: Moderate

Access to the Sunken Garden Trail can be found by making the first right off of
Pleasant Valley Road adjacent to Pleasant Valley Boat Launch. This trail
will take you on either a 1.9 mile short loop or a 3-mile long loop. Both
sections of trail are mowed and include moderate inclines. The longer
section offers slightly more rugged terrain. The trail offers views of Lake
Arthur from the short loop, white pine stands and a small pond on the long
loop, and lake edge wetlands.

Directions:
Located in northwestern Pennsylvania near the crossroads of I-79 and
I-80, Moraine State Park is bisected by PA 422 running east/west and PA 528
running north/south. To access the South Shore Recreation Area, take the
South Shore Exit of PA 422. To access the North Shore from PA 422 East, take
the North Shore Exit. There is no access to the North Shore from PA 422
headed east from I-79, so, take the South Shore Exit, get onto PA 422 West
and take the North Shore Exit.
