About This Trail

A 4.9-mile spur branching from the main Archers Fork Loop into Wayne National Forest’s deepest sandstone outcrop country in Washington County. The rugged route passes natural arches and massive rock formations through remote mature hardwood forest, with multiple creek crossings and the same mine-runoff water warnings as the main loop.
