The Bruno's Run Trail offers a 7.25 mile (11.7-km) loop ideal for hiking in spring, summer and fall and snowshoeing in winter.

Although the trail is not groomed in winter for cross-country skiing, it does offer a suitable course for experienced skiers who prefer to break their own way.

Winding its way past a host of small lakes etched in this relatively new glacial plain, the trail takes hikers, snowshoers and skiers over gently rolling country. Further along, the trail runs over foothills, along overlooks and through valleys.

The many lakes and streams in the area and its variety of trees and other plants make it likely that those traveling the trail will spot wildlife or signs of their comings and goings. If you are alert, you are sure to have an enjoyable outing.

Permits are not required for camping along the trail or for camp fires.
