This Loop Trail In Pittsburgh Is A Best Kept Secret For Adventure Lovers

Pittsburgh's always surprising us, isn't it? Even if we've lived here for years - or our whole lives - we always discover something new and exciting. If you're an avid hiker, you might already know about this enchanting trail in Pittsburgh. But, if you're still getting to know the area trails, you're in for a delightful treat.

Get ready for something of a workout when you embark on the Hollow Oak Loop Trail in Coraopolis, a 3.2-mile loop trail that...

Promises plenty of beautiful scenery - from a small waterfall to a cave.

But, you'll also have to hike up quite a few hills, earning this trail a moderate rating from some hikers.

Of course, you might want a couple of pointers before you head out on Hollow Oak Loop Trail. Hikers advise others to bring or to wear plenty of bug spray as the wooded area often has an abundance of gnats and other bugs.

And, you'll probably hear gunshots from time to time as you hike. The trail runs near the local gun club.

Popular with hikers and mountain bikers, the picturesque trail will lead you over footbridges, along a flowing creek, and near a hidden cave.
