ウェストモアランド郡のおすすめランニングルート

Seven Springs is a mountain ski resort with multi-use trails in the off-season. The Laurel Highlands Hiking Trail runs directly through the area and past Tahoe Lodge, with views of the nearby lake. For through hikers, this is a great spot to rest for a meal and take in some views of the highest point on the trail.

South of Middle Fork Road, this overlook gives you a nice panorama of Fayette County, Chestnut Ridge, and even the Pittsburgh skyline in the distance.

The Cedar Creek Hiker-Biker Campground is one of several campsites free to GAP users. At this one, there is a grassy area for tents, picnic areas, fire rings, and drinking water. It is also possible to park at the campsite. If you want to leave your car overnight, you need to fill out a registration form at the registration kiosk to let the staff know you are on the GAP.

Here at the edge of B&Y Park you can pick up the Westmoreland Heritage Trail. This wide, flat trail is open to pedestrians and cyclists and due to its surface most of it is also accessible to those with disabilities or mobility issues.

The Round Top Trail leads up to the summit of Round Top/1360, the highest point in the park. Though it's only a short trail it's also the steepest in the park so you'll feel it in your legs and lungs.

This 250-acre park is a great escape in Murrysville with a few miles of hiking and biking trails. There is enough space here to have room to yourself even on busier days.

Turtle Creek runs for just over 21 miles through Westmoreland County. Here in Duff Park the trails cross the stream multiple times.

Duff Park may seem like any other woodland park, but it holds a secret, because here you'll find one of the last remaining old growth forests in Pennsylvania. In addition, it's a recognized Wild Plant Sanctuary by the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources.
