Description

Gorgeous & interesting point to point on extremely well maintained rail trail. This route begins at GAP Mile Marker 72 on a footbridge over the Youghiogheny River in Ohiopyle, PA, a popular hiking and rafting destination. It then follows the river along the historic rail route cut through the wooded and rocky Allegheny Mountain Range area. At the town of Confluence, PA, the path leaves the Yough at a major dam and begins to meander alongside & over the winding Casselman River. There are too many charming old trestles & river views to count during the middle 35 miles.
