About the Adventure

Activity Level 2: Moderate Location: Indian Head, PA Guide: Joe – lead, Megan - assist Join us for a 13 mile out and back ride on the beautiful Indian Creek Valley Trail. This old railroad right of way was once used for passenger service and lumber, and coal hauling. We’ll begin our ride at the Indian Head trail entrance where we will quickly find the ride paralleling Indian Creek most of the way. Besides the beauty of the creek, there are rock outcropping and stands of rhododendron to take in. We will stop on the way back at a bridge that provides a great view up and down Indian Creek. There is an option to do only the first 10 miles as we return to the parking lot where we started. The other 3 miles is an out and back in the opposite direction from the parking area. This is a great ride for those wanting to not only see a wonderful trail, but to experience a ride in the Laurel Highlands.
