From the Black Moshannon State Park Campground, near campsite 22 and the playground, head down the Tent Hill Trail to the lake. Go left on the Lake Loop Trail around the dam and down to Route 504. Cross the bridge and the street to follow West Side Road left for a short distance. An unnamed trail will appear on your right, leading uphill to the cabin area.From the cabins, hop on the Seneca Trail and follow it until it intersects the Hay Road Trail. Make a left and follow this trail to its terminus at West Side Road. Go right to get on the Bog Trail and follow the boardwalks around to its terminus and the beginning of the Moss-Hanne Trail.Follow the Moss-Hanne Trail all the way around the Black Moshannon Bog Natural Area to where it ends at Beaver Road. Turn left and follow the road a short distance until you can duck back into the woods on the Star Mill Trail on the left. When it forks, stay left again and follow the shoreline back around to Beaver Road. Go left on Beaver Road and follow it to Route 504, where you can again cross the bridge and the street, getting back on the Lake Loop Trail to finish its loop at the Tent Hill Trail junction, and take that trail back to the beginning at the campground.

Originally used by the Seneca Indians for hunting and fishing, this area was later logged by timber companies until it was denuded. The state then bought the land and began reforestation.
