About the Cabin

This cozy, primitive, one-room cabin is located in the Michaux State Forest, about 6 miles from Waynesboro, PA. The reconstruction of the cabin was completed in by PATC volunteers in 1977. Access the cabin from the AT or by a 0.25 steep, and rocky hike-in from parking. There, you will find an intimate main floor including a kitchen and dining area, a fireplace and wood stove, and a double-width, double deck bunk with room for 6 mattresses in the loft space above. Hikers can travel along Tumbling Run and the AT, and explore Michaux State Forest or nearby Caledonia State Park and Gettysburg.
