Rocky Point Trail


The Rocky Point Trail (U.S.F.S. No.554, 1.8 miles) offers exceptional views of Red Creek Canyon, Stone-coal George, and Coal Knob if you are willing to climb up some of the higher Pottsville sandstone outcroppings along the trail. If the leaves have dropped from the trees, the falls along Fisher Spring Run and numerous inviting rock formations are visible, especially to the east. As one would expect from its name, the trail’s treadway is extremely rocky, but there are no steep grades.
