Trail Overview
Boulder Field Run provides a loop run located off 534 in Hickory Run State Park and ends near the state park picnic area. This route is one way but watch for State Park vehicles in addition to animals on the trail. There is a wooden bridge crossing and tunnel (underneath the PA Turnpike), the rest is surrounded by trees and dense forest. At about the halfway point is the famous "Boulder Field". There is plenty of parking, and restrooms, and it makes for a great picnic spot.
