Since we were only interested in sampling the trail we parked at Manch Chunck lake park (just outside of town) where the trail makes one of two road crossing, from here we pedaled up the trail to the Summit Moutain trailhead (about 3.5 miles), then let gravity take us back down to the lake (boat rental, bait, swimming also available at lake). more on TrailLink.com

Did not make it to Mt. Pisgah, where the view is tremendous. more on TrailLink.com

There was a cemetery and homes, but I didn't see any fantastic views. more on TrailLink.com
