Red Loop

The Red Loop Trail at Hartwood Acres in Hampton Township, Pennsylvania is an amazing 1.8-mile hike through the scenic fields and woods of Hartwood Acres Park.

The trail brings you by private pastures and through woods and fields of the old estate. The trailhead can be found on the south side of Hartwood Acres Drive just east of the theater and Little Pine Creek.

Follow the red blazes to stay on the trail. When you reach Hartwood Acres Drive on the west side of the trail, you'll complete the loop by hiking west along the road and back to parking.

Parking: Parking at Hartwood Acres is a bit odd since there's only two main places to park. For this trail, you'll want to park at the parking lot on Middle Rd just south of Central Elementary School. This means that you'll need to walk over to the trailhead.
