.The West Penn Trail is a rails-to-trails conversion which mostly follows the Conemaugh River. It was an active railroad line until the 1970s when the Penn-Central Railway Co. abandoned it. You'll pick up the trail in Saltsburg or the White Station parking coords, making your way east. One of the first things you'll learn is that the old canal paralleled the railroad and river. You'll see plenty of sites relating to the old canal including lock sites, tunnel sites, and culverts scattered along the trail ......Follow beyond this section thru the GameLands,Conemaugh Dam Recreation Area and on to the Stone Arch Bridges of the Conemaugh River Lake.........This section is about 3 1/2 miles between Saltsburg and the turn into and thru the gamelands ........Nice leasurely bike ride or walk as you cache this section...All caches are on or fairly close to trail.....B.Y.O.P......Bring the kids.....Have a fun time...Just a reminder wear your orange during hunting season..Looking for a little small preform.....
