HIKING: Samuel S. Lewis State Park

← MD BEETREE RUN BENTLEY SPRINGS MD Triple Blaze →

Description

The one-mile Hilltop Trail winds through a pine plantation, interesting rock formations and spectacular scenic views. This easy hike also takes visitors past the George E. Stine Arboretum. Over the years, the arboretum has been severely damaged by storms and high winds. However, it still contains European beech, persimmon, concolor fir, English yew and other unique species, capturing a piece of the landscape's past. Use the Short Cut Trail, a short loop, to more fully explore the pine plantation.

Directions

Samuel S. Lewis State Park is in southcentral Pennsylvania, York County, and is about 12 miles east of York, Pennsylvania. From the Wrightsville exit of US 30 follow Cool Creek Road south about 1.5-miles to Mt. Pisgah Road and the park.
