The Yellow & Black Blaze Trail at Deer Lakes Park in Tarentum, Pennsylvania is an easy 0.4 mile out-and-back hike that connects the White Trail and the Yellow Loop Trail. This hike is fairly easy, but starts by heading uphill for a couple of switchbacks before leveling out.

The trail cuts through the power lines, so you can get a small view of the hills on the opposite side of the park. The views are best in autumn when the leaves are changing color.

Dogs, mountain biking, and horses are also allowed on this trail.
