About Locust Springs
Nature viewers enjoy unusual vegetation normally found several hundred miles to the north. Red Spruce and northern hardwoods such as birch, beech, and maple reside here due to frigid soil temperatures. Enjoy the Buck Run and/or the Locust Springs Trails, or hike down one of the trails to Laurel Fork. Visit the adjacent spring which forms the headwaters of Locust Spring Run.
