Trail Overview
Tyler Road in Moshannon State Forest is an unpaved and well-traveled route between the small town of Tyler and McGeorge Road. There is a long, steep hill at the west (town of Tyler) end of the road. The hill section is narrow and is a shelf road. The road is smooth gravel and wide enough to pass carefully in many areas, particularly east of Buskirk Road. The north end of Parker Dam State Park can be accessed from this road as well. A few streams and hiking trails intersect Tyler Road; however, they are best accessed from the state park, where there are ample designated parking areas.
