Description
Park at the loop where there are a few grills and pavilions for cooking, then take the trail down to the left next to the Skippack Creek and to the bridge. The trail can be poorly marked at times, but if you follow the creek you'll be fine. Head up the Mill Race Trail Campground Connector, close to the road, cross over another parking area and you'll be back in the campground area!
