This is a 2.1-mile loop hike takes you to the beautiful Shamokin Springs Falls. While the overall elevation gain is moderate, there are a few somewhat steep/rocky sections, especially along the falls. The Loggers Alley is a well-graded forested trail, while the Chestnut Springs trail is rocky and steeper.
The Plunge
Shamokin Springs to Upper Shamokin Falls
This 2.8-mile route follows the Old Appalachian Trail to Shamokin Falls. This waterfall flows year-round but is best visited after it has recently rained. The trail can be very rocky and muddy in spots, so good hiking footwear is recommended. There are a few spots where bog boards are in place to help navigate through areas that are often wet.
Wintergreen Full Loop Hike
The 12-mile Wintergreen Loop hike encircles Wintergreen Resort (also referred to as Potatopatch Mountain). This hike is extremely challenging using multiple Wintergreen trails. Highlights include stunning views, waterfalls, and beautiful mountain laurel blooms. Challenges consist of steep, rocky sections and slippery spots. Good footwear and a map are essential.
Wintergreen South Loop Hike
This 6-mile hike circles around the southern side of Wintergreen Resort. From the Wintergreen Founders Overlook Access, take the Dobie Access Trail to start this loop. This loop includes many varied and difficult terrain and includes scenic overlooks, streams, steep rocky sections and forested areas.
Note: parts of this trail are closed in the winter when the ski slopes are open.
