Columbia County Pennsylvania Horse Trails

Ricketts Glen State Park Loop

Ricketts Glen State Park

Length: 9.0  miles
Rating: Moderate

Horse riders may enjoy taking a 9-mile loop by riding the Cherry Run Trail, Fish Commission Road, and Mountain Springs Trail. Sights to see include; old railroad grades, Mountain Springs Lake (formerly used to make ice), and an old concrete dam once used to hold back Lake Leigh (now a dry lake).

This area is actually in Luzerne County, but since some of Ricketts Glen State Park is in Columbia County, this area will be included here.

Directions:

The park is 30 miles north of Bloomsburg on PA 487. The section of PA 487 from the town of Red Rock to the Lake Jean area of the park is a very steep road. Heavy trailer units should avoid this hill and enter the park by taking PA 487 south from Dushore.
