Descent

The Spur Line Trail at Lyman Run State Park in Galeton, Pennsylvania is an easy to moderate 0.6-mile one-way trail that connects the Rock Run Trail to the end of the Rock Run Trail along Rock Run Road.

This trail is simply a gradual-grade connector trail that you can use to hike up to the Lyman Lake Vista point along the Rock Run Trail for an easier hike than taking the Rock Run Trail. There are no blazes to follow, but none are needed since there are no offshoot trails from this one until you reach the other end.

Hiking uphill: This recording starts at the top of the hill and heads down back to parking. If you plan to hike this trail in the opposite direction, make sure to look for a trailhead sign along the Rock Run Trail, not very far from the trailhead along the road, to make sure you take a left-hand turn onto this trail. Otherwise you may miss the turn and continue hiking along the Rock Run Trail. The uphill hike is a lot easier than the Rock Run Trail due to the grade of the trail.

Parking: Parking can be found at the coordinates provided and sits across the street from the eastern campground. Follow signs for the Rock Run Trail straight from the parking area. There's enough space for about 5 cars.

Pets: Dogs are allowed on leash and their waste must be carried out.

Hunting: Hunting is allowed here - wear orange to make yourself visible.

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!️
