Description

The Hanover Trolley Trail currently consists of two segments. The Hanover segment begins at Moul Field and extends for just under a mile towards Wilson Avenue.

The Jackson Township segment runs from the Spring Grove Borough/Jackson Township line for approximately a mile and a half to Martin Road. A trailhead is located along Hershey Road at about the midpoint of this open trail segment.

Parking and Trail Access

To access the Spring Grove segment from Route 116, turn onto Sprenkle Road and go about 0.5 mile to Hershey Road; turn right. There is parking here. An additional small parking lot is available on the other end of this trail segment off East Constitution Avenue, just east of Hosiery Alley.

To access the Hanover section, take Wilson Avenue to Cherry Tree Court. Go to the end of Cherry Tree. The trail goes through a farm field. Parking is available at Moul Field (off Moul Avenue).
