The Black Forest Trail is a 43-mile loop located in Pennsylvania's Tiadaghton State Forest. It’s considered by many as the most prized hiking trail of the Pennsylvania Wilds. This book is a must-have when planning for this hike. The guidebook breaks down in great detail what you will encounter on the trail in the form of trail notes so you can prepare accordingly. With the included topographical map, you will find that it contains mileage points, elevation profiles, possible campsite locations, water sources, and overlooks.
