Heading south underneath I-81, you’ll enter the Harrisburg Area Community College campus at about 8 miles, and then the Pennsylvania Farm Show and Expo Center grounds at 9.5 miles. The left fork at 10.5 miles takes you on a side trail for nearly 2 miles up Asylum Run, a tributary of Paxton Creek, with a section that breaks off and heads north to Veterans Memorial Park just after you pass the Susquehanna Soccer Club complex. The right fork continues alongside and on Pine, Stanley, and North Parkway Drives to the grounds of the National Civil War Museum.

The path follows a creek and takes a couple of short side streets to the Five Senses Garden at mile 15. As you continue, watch on the right for the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial, accessible only from the trail. You’ll return to the Susquehanna River in another 2.5 miles through the woods surrounding Spring Creek. Note the extra loop in the trail that takes you around Phoenix Park. The Walnut Street Bridge is less than 3 miles from here.
