Cow Pasture Trail to Parking
Time to Hike: ~36 minutes
Camping Allowed
Dogs (leashed)
Biking
This 1.2 mile point-to-point trail at the Cranberry Wilderness in Hillsboro, West Virginia leads from the Cranberry Glades parking to the northern terminus of the Cow Pasture Trail (or vice versa). I started tracking this right outside of the end of the Cow Pasture Trail, but this trail goes much further north and runs through the entire Cranberry Wilderness.
Nothing special or interesting to see; however, this road has a gate ~0.5 miles south of the northern terminus for the Cow Pasture Trail. There's also a parking lot right at that gate.
Camping: There are backpacking shelters along this trail too, just 1.5 miles north of the Cow Pasture Trail. If you plan to go beyond the Cow Pasture Trail, you'll need to do so on foot.

MyHikes is an independently-owned platform aimed to make exploring public trails easier for everyone. The site has no investors and is owned and operated by one person, Dave / Admin. We share trails, hikes, and backpacking trips on the interwebs for the fun of it and put a ton of time into mapping and writing about new trails to publish each month.
It takes a lot of time 🕦, money 💰, and effort (including espresso shots ☕) to run MyHikes. We simply ask that if you find our content helpful or useful when planning your next adventure that you consider making a small donation to help keep the site running.
You can become a Supporter* (*MyHikes user account required) to unlock perks for as little as $0.83/month with a 1-time non-recurring payment 😎 Or you can simply Donate any amount without a MyHikes user account. Otherwise, telling your friends about MyHikes or poking around the site to view ads is the next-best thing to a donation - both quick and free 😄
