Trails reopened after fire
After the recent forest fire in the park, the Appalachian Trail as well as Foss and Knowlton, Blueberry Ledges, Abol Pond and Abol Stream trails have been reopened. Use caution while hiking these trails in the burned area as trees have been weakened by the fire and falling trees and branches remain a hazard.
