A bend in the trail near its southern terminus offers a sweeping vista.

The path is wooded for a short distance, and then passes some fields before plunging back into the woods. There’s a steep slope at the Mill Road crossing at 1.4 miles where a trestle has been removed; note that this specific intersection is not conducive to wheelchairs. Other road crossings along the trail are at level, except for the passage under PA 283.

Crossing Hershey Road/PA 743 (use caution at this busy road) at 2.7 miles, you’ll pass Rails to Trail Bicycle Shop, which offers rental bikes, snacks, and a place to fill your water bottles. A couple of road crossings later you’ll pass through Bellaire, which has an old mill that’s now used as a carpentry shop. Not long after passing Prospect Road, you’ll see that the trail becomes the Lebanon Valley Rail-Trail.
