The Beechwood Lake Dike Trail in Westfield, Pennsylvania is an easy 0.6-mile out-and-back trail that features vies of Beechwood Lake and ample fishing opportunities along the shore of the lake.

This unofficial trail is just a grassy dike that holds back the reservoir at Beechwood Lake. Hikers will begin at the main parking lot, walk down the entrance road, and take a left-hand turn where the grassy hill slopes downward toward the lake. Hikers can walk the entire length of the dike (not included in the GPS track) to find a nice fishing spot or place to sit along the lake to relax.

Parking
Hikers and visitors will find a very large parking lot at the coordinates provided.

Pets
Dogs are allowed if leashed and their waste must be carried out.

Before you leave...

MyHikes is an indie web platform aimed to make exploring public trails easier for everyone. The site has no investors and is owned and operated by one person, Dave Miller (Founder & Admin). As the Founder, main contributor, and doer-of-all-things for MyHikes, I share my trips with over-detailed write-ups for fun on a volunteer basis and I believe that public trail information should be available to everyone.

It takes a lot of time 🕦, money 💰, and effort (including espresso shots ☕) to run MyHikes, including hiking , mapping , writing , and publishing new trails with high-quality content... along with building new features, moderating, site maintainance, and app development for iOS and Android . I simply ask that if you find MyHikes' trail guides helpful to please consider becoming a Supporter to help keep the site, iOS, and Android apps available to everyone.

Supporters unlock website and in-app perks with a one-time payment of $25 (you renew) 😎👍. Or you can simply make a Donation of your choice without a MyHikes user account. Otherwise, telling your friends about MyHikes is the next-best thing - both quick and free 🎉

Thanks for visiting MyHikes and have a great hike!️
