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).
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.
