Glendalough Trail Description

Overview

The Glendalough Trail runs for 5.24 miles around Glendalough State Park. The trail is paved and runs primarily around Annie Battle Lake and Molly Stark Lake within the state park, and for some of the route, it shares the road with the park entrance and access.

About the Route

The best access point for the trail is located at the southern along Whitetail Rd. On the western end of the route, the trail heads north along a wide grassy plain. The trail passes both lakes in the state park and also the Yurt and Watercraft campsites.

When the trail reaches the northern end of the trail, the route verges away from the trail for a second and heads north, where it meets the Ice Ridge Trail (hiking only) and then immediately south and west back alongside Annie Battle Lake. 

The western edge of the trail passes along more state park states as it heads south. First, the trail passes the Glendalough Lodge, the dining hall, and amphitheater. From here, the trail moves away from the lakeside and begins to share the road with the park entrance road. The route here passes the Sunset Trail entrance, cart-in campground, group campground, Molly Stark picnic area, and boat ramp.
