The Bear Run Trail at Tioga State Forest in Wellsboro, Pennsylvania is an easy to moderate 0.8-mile one-way trail that runs adjacent to Colton Rd.

This trail is simply a nice walk in the woods, but the southern end is a bit more interesting than the northern end with rows of tall pine trees that line the trail. The trail itself can be a bit muddy, so proper footwear is useful here.

This recording starts in the northern parking lot and follows the trail south. If you hike the trail in this direction, stay left at each trail junction to stay on the trail. If you're hiking this trail south to north, stay right at each trail junction to stay on the trail.

The trail also has a self-guided tour that hikers can follow by downloading the state forest's map:
