The Stone Lodge Loop Trail at Keystone State Park, Pennsylvania, is a moderate 1.6 mile out-and-back loop hike that starts at the visitor's center, heads up the hill behind it, before heading back.
Along the trail are the remnants of an old homestead, but we were not able to find anything during the Summer. The Fall or Winter may be better seasons to find the old homestead.
This trail is fairly moderate since it shoots up a large hill quickly for the first 0.5 miles or so before a "rollercoaster" of ups and downs before looping back to the main uphill climb.
Dogs are allowed here, but no biking. Follow the yellow blazes and stay left or stay right to continue on the trail. There are a couple connector trails that cuts between the main loop, so check your map at each intersection.
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!️
