7. Mcveytown, PA to Hartleton, PA

MCVEYTOWN, PA TO HARTLETON, PA – 100 miles

Travel back in time to when a horse and buggy were the only method of travel and life was simpler and less urgent. Small, quaint hamlets and extraordinarily well-kept farms and homesteads dot the Amish valleys as far as the eye can see.

Make a stop at Greenwood Furnace State Park, and Greenwood Lake practically begs passersby to take a refreshing dip. Bonus, there are bathrooms and showers.

Food options are sparse but Couch’s Grocery has some provisions just up the road. The ensuing dirt roads through Bald Eagle State Forest will snap you back to attention. The optional harder section on Poe Paddy Drive is highlighted by a steep descent complete with embedded rocks, ruts and switchbacks. Poe Paddy State Park is a welcome respite at the end of the slope and offers a lovely campground and picnic

area. From there you’ll have another optional harder section or an easy gravel road on the way to the end of this section in Hartleton, PA.
