Fern Loop is a mountain biking route at Asbury Woods Nature Center in Pennsylvania, managed by a non-governmental organization. The trail is rated easy and has no elevation gain, so it's a flat ride that makes a good short outing or a warm-up before exploring the network of trails around it. Late spring through early fall is the most comfortable time to ride. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show June highs around 77°F and September highs around 74°F, with July and August the warmest months at about 80°F. Dogs are allowed on the trail as long as they stay on a leash. Several other mountain biking routes sit right next to it, including Buttermilk Falls Trail, Lookout Trail and Bluff Trail, all about 0.1 mile away. For a change of pace, Elk Creek offers canoeing about 5.8 miles off.
