Trail Overview

Bear Meadows Road is a well-maintained gravel trail through Rothrock State Forest. The trail passes along the Bear Meadows Natural Area before climbing to a ridge and descending to Alan Seeger Natural Area. The trail passes multiple hiking trailheads, private cabins, and other off-road trails as it traverses a forest of deciduous trees, pine, mountain laurel, and rhododendrons. The spring bloom and fall foliage are especially scenic. Only highway-legal vehicles are allowed. ATVs are not allowed.
