Hike the Rimrock-Morrison Trail
Bradford, Pennsylvania

/ 1609 ft gain
This trail has several loops off of it. Have a clear map when going into it, so you know which sections you are doing.
Once you leave the trailhead parking lot, you have an option to head left on the Morrison Loop, or right on the Rimrock Loop. There is an adjacent trail that they share down the middle, if you only do one side or the other. The whole trail of both loops is 14 miles.

Photograph Elk at the Elk Country Visitor Center
Benezette, Pennsylvania
5.0
The aptly named Pennsylvania County (Elk County) is a must for anyone looking to understand why the PA Wilds logo looks the way it does. Setting aside a whole day is a must. It will be enough time for most, but for others, there will never be enough time.Depending on which direction you are coming from, I recommend taking the route past Lock Haven and through Renovo, following 120 to 555. In th...
