Lick Hollow Nature Trail - Lick Hollow State Forest Picnic Area - Hopwood, Pennsylvania

Lick Hollow Nature Trail is 3/4 mile long trail and is also a leisurely walk through the picnic area. The trail is self-guided, and interpretive pamphlets can be found at the picnic area (Which should be returned when you are finished). It will take about an hour to walk the trail and stop at each of the 20 interpretive stops. Along the way, you will learn about a few of the tree species native to this area, how riparian areas are important for wildlife, about insects and disease, and other pertinent topics.
