Welcome to the Rachel Carson Trail (RCT). This trail is 35 miles long and runs from Harrison Hills Park to North Park, or vice versa whichever way your headed. The trail follows the yellow blazes that are paint on trees, telephones poles, etc. A single blaze means continue to follow and a double blaze means there is a turn.
If you're really up for an adventure, you should do the Rachel Carson Trail Challenge which is either 35, 17.5, or 7 miles long, whichever adventure you're up for.
The Rachel Carson Trails Conservancy has been given permission by the land owners for trail use. Even though there are no private property postings, please, as always, be respectful of the trail and surrounding areas. You will need to cross Route 8 from parking to get to the trail. Remember, look for the yellow blazes! If coming in from Crouse Run, there will be a creek crossing and a hill climb to get to this area. The GPS is pretty bouncy back here. You will be looking for a small plastic container. There is room for TB's and small trades. Please rehide as found and don't leave uncovered.
