Merli-Sarnoski Park

Merli-Sarnoski has some great intermediate single-track trails. With around ten miles worth of trails, it is definitely interesting, some-what technical, and provides some features that could trip you up. The entire park covers thirty-five acres.

It's located in Fell township (next to Carbondale) just off of 106. You can't miss the entrance gate.

The loop eventually leads out to a scenic overlook of Carbondale.


The trails were created in loops that can make navigation really simple.


There has been logging as of 2006, but as of recently, I am unaware of any logging going on, currently.

The park was named after the two local Medal of Honor recipients Gino Merli and Joseph Sarnoski.

Along with the bike trails, there is also fishing, soccer fields, swimming at the lake, and pavilions throughout the park.
