The Strawcutter Trail at Keystone State Park, Pennsylvania, is a 0.9 mile out-and-back hike that connects Barchesky Rd to the Davis Run Loop Trail.

The best part about this trail is closest to the road where the power lines and McCune Run cuts through the trail with nice views of wildflowers and the surrounding hills.

Dogs allowed, but no biking on this trail.

Follow the yellow blazes, but note that most trails at Keystone State Park use yellow blazes, so check your map often 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!️
