Last but not least we have an option that's just a few minutes down the road from the popular Musser Gap and Shingletown Gap trailheads.  A tight network of trails allows you to mix things up however you like without ever being too far from your vehicle.

Kepler Road

  • Low-density recreation option conducive to social distancing guidance
  • Parking Lot located on Kepler Rd, off State Route 26, south of Pine Grove Mills
  • Lot will accommodate 6 vehicles
  • Provides access to a network of shared-use trails consisting mostly of smooth single and double-track trails
  • Moderate changes in elevation
  • Trails are not blazed but do have signage and are maintained
  • Views of State College available off of the Doc Detour Trail
  • Loops can range in distance from one to four miles
  • Loops consist of trails that meander through the woods, follow ridge tops (some smooth and some very rocky), utilize old logging roads, and also follow utility lines providing open wildlife viewing corridors.
