Trail Vibe

The Oak Savannah Trail picks up at the Erie Lackawanna Trail intersection on Arbogast, follows Colfax to the train line, and turns to follow the tracks for a bit. We like to branch off on to the Chesapeake & Ohio Greenway rail trail. This is a wonderful combination of natural views - farmland on one side, towering trees on the other. There aren't typically a lot of people on this section, so it is very calm and peaceful.
