This is a very nice rail-to-trail. This access point is about 15 miles south of Harrisburg. The trail runs right behind the Stonefort Railroad Depot and can be seen in the far left of the photos featuring the depot. Parking is on an adjoining lot. One of the most significant features on the trail is a 543 feet long tunnel. The tunnel, named Tunnel Hill, is also an access point with parking, pit toilets, maps and other information.
