The Wetlands Trail at Harrison Hills Park, PA, is a 2.3 mile loop hike and one of the best trails in the park.

Despite its name, this trail has more to offer than some of the shorter trails at Harrison Hills. Since the trail encompasses the central area of the park, you wind in and out of different types of forests and some open meadows as well. The trail ascends and descends hills from time to time, but for the most part it's an easy hike.

Vista Point
There's a vista point of the Allegheny River along the way that technically lies along the Scout's Trail, but hikers can walk over easily from the Wetland Trail to get a view.

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 / Admin. As the main contributor and doer-of-all-things for MyHikes, I share my experiences from hikes and backpacking trips on MyHikes 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, and site maintainance . I 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 is the next-best thing to a donation - both quick and free 😄

Thanks for visiting MyHikes and have a great hike! ✌
