Virtual Tour: Powell's Creek Trail

The Powell's Creek Trail is a 1.28 mile, moderate difficulty loop which is accessible from a small parking lot approximately 200 yards past the park entrance and Contact Station or from the Bushey Point Trail. The trail winds through a mature hardwood forest consisting of a variety of trees including Red Oak, White Oak, Maple, Sweet Gum, Tulip Popular, Mountain Laurel and Paw Paw. A bridge crosses the ravine and Powell's Creek followed by terraced steps that climb out of the ravine to the trail and back to the trail head.
