About This Trail
A fairly level rim walk at Colton Point State Park offers multiple canyon vistas from the western edge of Pine Creek Gorge, with viewing benches at key overlooks. The wooded trail passes through mixed hardwood forest between panoramic viewpoints of the 1,450-foot-deep gorge. Connects to the Turkey Path descent on the west side for a more strenuous canyon-floor option.
