We parked our car in Farrandsville and walked 1.5 miles up the
road to the southern terminus of the Donut Hole Trail on the Hazard Road.
The first 4 miles were a gradual climb of 800 ft. up the mountain along the Fravel
Trail to the Carrier Road. Through this section we walked into a bees nest -
unfortunately Dave wasn't so lucky but I outran them!
The DHT continued
across the Carrier Road passing a very nice vista looking out over the Susquehanna River. We then crossed several tributaries of Ferney Run until intersecting the Oak Ridge
Road - this section was about 4 miles long.
We took a left on the Oak Ridge Road going only about a 100 yards before turning left onto
the Ferney Run Trail. |
