About This Trail

[Total: 5    Average: 4.8/5]

Bullfrog Valley Pond is a small parking lot/trail head alongside the Jonathan Eshenour Memorial Trail. It is a popular spot to join the trail as it is a nice walk to the playgrounds at Shank Park (approximately 1-1.5 miles). The pond is a nice view and is often filled with various birds.

This is a short walk North to a favorite local coffee shop/lunch: The Cocoa Beanery, a Hike it Baby Harrisburg Winter Play Partner.

I’m Ruth, and my little hiker is Ellie. We joined Hike it Baby in November 2017, when she was just two months old. I was a new mom, with a new baby, in a new place looking for a community to connect to and a way to get moving gently. In the Fall of 2018 we opened a new branch, Hike it Baby Lebanon-Hershey, Pa. The new branch is a little closer to home, and hope to increase participation in our local community. I’ve always love the outdoors and an occasional hike and Hike it Baby has connected me to the outdoors in a new region of the country. I am proud to get outdoors more frequently and hope to raise a daughter that loves to be outside.
