Hike to Bake Oven Knob

Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania

5.0

0.76 mi

The trail is VERY rocky and stepping up the rocks requires proper footwear. From the beginning of the trail, hike until you reach an opening filled with rocks and boulders. Stay to the left of this and you will see the unmarked trail continue. After climbing up this, there is an overlook to the North on your left, but the better views are less than 100 feet further on your right. You will come ...

Hike Up the Appalachian Trail at Lehigh Gap

Walnutport, Pennsylvania

4.5

2.5 mi / 730 ft gain

Lehigh Gap was formed by the Lehigh River carving a large hole in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains. One side is owned and operated by the Lehigh Gap Nature Center and has some great hikes, but this side is government-owned. Parking for this portion of the Appalachian Travel is up a little bumpy gravel road off Rt. 248, near the intersection at the bridge. Once you park, continue north...

Park in the lot near the Hamburg Reservoir and hike around the barrier and up the gravel road. Shortly on your right the Appalachian Trail branches off the road. Follow the white blazes of the AT for around 2 miles to the Pulpit Rocks, just before the trail passes the Lehigh Valley Astronomical Society road.From the Pulpit Rocks you will get a glimpse of the sweeping grandeur the Pinnacles will...

The trail entrance can be found by going up Broadway and taking Hill Road to the right at the Opera House. At the top of Hill Road will be the entrance to the trail; there is a nice little wooden sign so you don't miss it. This trail can be hiked or biked; we chose to do some mountain biking.The beginning of the trail is for beginners. The trail is pretty well groomed and it follows next to ...

Bike the Lehigh Gorge Trail: Lock #2

Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania

4 mi

It was a rainy day, which brings along mud (but I think mountain biking is better in the rain and mud anyways).Enter the trail by going through the county parking lot and to the left end under the bridge. The trail starts along the tracks and you can admire the restored old rail cars. Cross over the bridge farther down and overlook the Lehigh River; you may be able to wave at some rafters. O...

Hike the Hawk Mountain Lookout Trail

Kempton, Pennsylvania

4.5

4.5 mi / 500 ft gain

The 4.5 mile loop Hawk Mountain Lookout Trail takes you up to great views of the skyline of Pennsylvania. Surrounded by the rolling forested landscape and open sky, this trail is scenic through and through. Hike in the Spring to catch the flourishing wildflowers, and keep your eyes peeled for eagles, hawks, and other birds of prey. Trail is accessible April-October.
