Mountain Springs Trail

Ricketts Glen State Park

Length: 4.0  miles
Rating: Moderate

Heading off of the beaten path, this trail will take you on a 4-mile hike past the old Lake Leigh dam, the forgotten falls, and down the south branch of Bowmans Creek to the serene Mountain Springs Lake area.

This area is actually in Luzerne County, but since some of Ricketts Glen State Park is in Columbia County, this area will be included here.

Directions:

The park is 30 miles north of Bloomsburg on PA 487. The section of PA 487 from the town of Red Rock to the Lake Jean area of the park is a very steep road. Heavy trailer units should avoid this hill and enter the park by taking PA 487 south from Dushore.
