Hickory Run State Park - Hiking

Hike and explore Hickory Run State Park.

Hickory Run Sate Park encompasses 44 miles of scenic hiking trails. Trails range in distance and terrain, leading through areas rich in historic and visual interest. Thick foliage, waterfalls, rocky areas and streams punctuate the pathways. Many trails were old roads used in the late 1800s. Popular treks include the Hawk Falls, Boulder Field, Fireline and Shades of Death trails. The Shades of Death trail is a one-mile route with tricky terrain and picturesque views. This rocky trail follows Sand Spring Run and meanders through rhododendron thickets and unique rock formations. Trail maps and resources are available at the park office.
