The trail winds through a spectacular “rock city”—a labyrinth of massive, moss-covered boulders. The forest is old and quiet, full of ferns and an eerie stillness.

Loyalsock State Forest spans over 114,000 acres, with nearly 200 miles of marked and unmarked trails that pass waterfalls, canyons, and dense forests. Much of this land is left from old logging railroads and Civilian Conservation Corps camps. Today, this space is a natural paradise.

You can park here along PA 44 to access the Black Forest Trail, Ruth Will Ski Trail, Naval Run Trail, and others. The parking lot is a small gravel pull-off along the main road.

The summit of Hemlock Mountain has one of the best views on the entire Black Forest Trail. There is a dry campsite at the top near the lookout with great flat spots to lay your tent.

You look north from here across a forest of white birch trees falling down the mountain toward Little Slate Run.

The Black Forest Trail follows orange blazes for its entire 42-mile length. Here it intersects with the old Gas Line Trail.

From here you can see across the valley formed by Naval Run to Hemlock Mountain and the Black Forest Trail.

This is a great spot to fill up on water before climbing either Naval or Hemlock Mountain, both of which have dry campsites at their summits.
