Hiked from mile 0 in Ohiopyle to the Ohiopyle shelters, 6.5 miles in 4hrs. Great elevation changes, great views and the trail was marked well. Shelters are well maintained and firewood was plentiful. Day two, hiked to from the shelter to Rt. 653 parking lot, about 6.5hrs over 12.5 miles. That hike begin straight up for 2 miles and ends going straight up at the 653 parking lot. Overall, a great trail and well maintained by the park system.
What a beautiful trail! Went up 7 miles to the backpacking shelters, they are every 10 miles or so and provide everything- shelters with cozy fireplaces, fire pits, bear proof trash collection, privies and non potable water (easy to filter with a pocket filter). A true gem.
Great place to hike.
