Wolf Rocks Trail for a Scenic Hike

  • Laurel Summit State Park - Wolf Rocks Trail Linn Run Road Rector, PA United States (map)

We will meet at the trailhead.

Leader: Denny McCarthy, dennymccarthy@comcast.net, 412-913-9064

Directions:  On Rt 30, drive 2 miles east of Ligonier.  Turn south onto Rt 381 and drive two miles to Rector.  In Rector, turn left onto Linn Run Road and drive 7.7 miles to Laurel Summit State Park.  Turn left as you approach the pavilion and drive into the parking lot.  Find the trail on the left side of the parking lot that leads to Wolf Rocks.

Description: We will hike this trail to the scenic Wolf Rocks Overlook.  It is about a 4.5-mile forested loop over relatively flat but sometimes very rocky ground.  Sturdy shoes and a hiking pole are helpful.  Many breeding songbirds along with spring and summer wildflowers like Mountain Laurel can be seen.  With a little luck we may spot Timber rattlesnakes sunning on the rocks.
