Tuscarora TrailWeb Site: http://www.dcnr.state.pa.us/forestry/hiking/index.aspxDescription: Closed for several years due to heavy briar growth and neglect, the Tuscarora Trail in Pennsylvania and Maryland is now open. Thanks to the efforts of the PATC North Chapter, this long distance trail can be traveled by day hikers and backpackers alike.
The Tuscarora Trail was originally created as a new route for the Appalachian Trail. It first departs the Appalachian Trail at the top of Blue Mountain in Deans Gap. It travels along ridge tops, southwesterly, to Maryland, where it connects to the Big Blue Trail before joining the Appalachian Trail again in Shenandoah National Park. The trail is over 250 miles in length, with 110 miles in Pennsylvania.
The Tuscarora Trail is marked with rectangular blue blaze marks.
In cooperation with DCNR, sections of this trail are maintained, in part, by volunteers from the Potomac Appalachian Trail Club - North Chapter.
Additional Information: Trail maps and guides can be obtained from:
