The Hog's Back Trail at Pfeiffer Nature Cetner's Lillibridge Property in Portville, New York is an easy 0.2-mile one-way trail that connects Merrick's Run with the Thornton Thruway Trail.

This beautiful woodland trail is very easy if hiked from north to south; however, that means hikers need to first climb Merrick's Run which is not easy at all. If hiked south to north, the trail is still an easy hike despite the short ascent uphill.

The Hog's Back Trail can be used in junction with the Thornton Thruway Trail and others to make an outer-perimeter loop hike along the property.

Parking
Hikers can find parking at the coordinates provided. The parking lot is large enough to fit about 8 large vehicles.

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

Blaze Color
This trail follows white blazes much like the rest of the trails at the Lillibridge Property, which can be confusing.

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!️
