History Hike
1579 State Park Road, Newport, PA 17074-9428
We will start at the park office (which has restrooms) and walk across the street to the Blue Ball Tavern. We will then walk the paved side of the road to the Sulfur Springs Cemetery. An option to explore the cemetery is available, but there is no paved path into the cemetery. We will then walk back the Blue Ball Tavern Trail (paved) to visit Clay's Bridge, Shoaff's Mill, and Way Car #12. The paths between these structures is gravel and flat. The Mill is partially accessible, and the train car will not be open.
