Black Diamond Trail

On July 4th, 2013, we rode the Black Diamond Trailsection of the D&H Trail. We parked at the trail access off Middleburg Rd, 1.7 north of White Haven and bicycled 8 miles to an access area off of rt 437 just south of Mountaintop PA. The trail is crushed stone and has a slight uphill grade when biking south to north.
There are were no bathrooms along this trail.
