Event comments

Palmer State Park (PSP) is a 550-acre tract within the Deer Creek watershed. Deer Creek flows thru PSP for approximately two miles. The trail is natural surface. Elevations within PSP range from 120 feet to 400 feet above mean sea level. Slopes within PSP vary from level to quite steep (zero to 45 degrees). Nature enthusiasts can enjoy the native flora and fauna as they hike throughout a forest composed of tulip poplar, beech, hickory, and red, white, and black oak, and more. Rated 2C because of the rugged terrain; the trail is NOT recommended for wheelchairs and strollers.
