Log Roll Trail

Transportation
3
Log Roll Overlook provides a westward view of the Town Creek watershed and of three states. It was named for logs rolled down the steep mountain slope in the late 1800s to a sawmill on Town Creek. Parts of Log Roll Trail follow the bed of a narrow-gauge logging railroad that operated at that time. The trail ends 4.5 miles from the overlook near Town Creek, and a 20-mile hike eastward along the canal passes through the Paw Paw Tunnel and returns to the Green Ridge Long Pond Trail at Lock 58.
