Description
The trail starts and ends at the Overlook Point with a large view of the Susquehanna River. Many birds are viewed from this high overlook, and the point includes a metered binocular. The trail then continues to the Rhododendron Trail that experiences bloom in late June/early July. The midpoint reveals the playground with swings and slides. The trail then widens on the Landis Trail that eventually returns to the Overlook Trail.
