Summary: This is one of my new favorite hikes. I have hiked in Worlds End State Park many times but never tried this hike before. I loved it. Nice changes from hardwood forest to stream crossings and a beautiful vista. As you start on teh trail you will start climbing gently, you will come to a sign showing the Upper Raod to the left and Lower road to the right. We went to the left and did the hike in a clockwise maner. I recomend this because the climb is easier, after the vista you will descend a switchback portion of the trail which we thought was definitely easier going down than up. Trailhead: The park is along PA 154 and is easily reached from: PA 87 from Williamsport and west; PA 42 from I-80 and south; and PA 87 from Dushore and the north and east. Go in the main park and by the swimming and picnic area, as you cross the bridge on the way to the cabins wou will see a small parking area on the left next to the creek. The trail starts there and is blazed maroon.
