The trail layout has taken advantage of the
engineering expertise of the early logging railroaders as it follows the
grades. The highlights of the trail are the many cuts & fills on the
grades, Rock Run (one of the prettiest streams in Pennsylvania), the vistas
that look into the McIntyre Wild Area, Pleasant Stream and the Loyalsock
Trail region.
The trail is blazed in orange. The trail area as well as many of the
trail areas of Pennsylvania have been written up in a historical series of
logging railroad books of Pennsylvania. The book that covers this region is
called "Ghost Lumber Towns of Central Pennsylvania." It includes
Masten which is the starting point of the Old Loggers Path.
In cooperation with DCNR, sections of this trail are maintained, in part,
by volunteers from the Keystone Trails Association.
