Crabapple Run Road

Trail Overview

Crabapple Run Road is a 3.5-mile out-and-back ungraded gravel and dirt road. The first half of the road is gravel, then it turns into dirt just past the intersection with Flat Rock Road. It is a moderate ride in the summer months; however, there is no maintenance at all on this trail. During times of rain, snow, and ice, the trail can become heavily rutted and extremely hard to travel on. There may be downed trees or large branches that will have to be cleared to continue on. Crabapple Run Road is within Sproul State Forest. There are numerous spots to stop along this road and enjoy the foliage and possible wildlife. There are a few camp sites located in this part of Sproul State Forest to choose from. This region of Pennsylvania is a great place to explore during the fall when the leaves are changing color, and the full beauty of the State Forest is on display.
