Trolley Trail – Keystone College to Factoryville | Woodland Rail-Trail Escape
The Keystone College to Factoryville segment of the Trolley Trail follows 1.7 miles along the former Northern Electric Trolley railbed. Maintained by Countryside Conservancy, this section remains a popular destination for walking and biking in the Abington area.
The trail winds through Keystone College’s Woodlands Campus, offering a quiet stretch beneath a leafy canopy. As it continues toward downtown Factoryville, the scenery shifts from forested pathways to small-town charm. Because the surface consists of smooth crushed stone and the grade remains gentle, the trail provides an easy, family-friendly experience.
Parking is available in downtown Factoryville and near the Keystone College football field. Three accessible, paved parking spaces with striped access aisles are located at Keystone College above the football field. The slight incline and well-maintained surface make this segment manageable for a wide range of users.
In addition, the Trolley Trail includes completed sections from La Plume to Dalton and from Clarks Summit to Dalton. On-road connections link each segment, and Countryside Conservancy plans future expansions that will eventually connect Clarks Summit to Lake Winola.
The Keystone College to Factoryville segment of the Trolley Trail offers a scenic woodland walk with smooth connections to the growing regional trail system.
