Games Lands Trail can be traveled in either direction and is a very easy trail which is perfectly flat over its entire length. The trail is blazed in green on white. There are a few soft spots in the rainy weather on the south side of the stream. The trail runs from the public boat mooring area up the State Game Lands service road along the north side of the West Branch of Tionesta Creek into State Game Lands 29, then crosses to the south side of the creek and meets and follows an old railroad grade into the campground. Hikers may return to the starting point by crossing the Lowlands Trail (2.3 miles) or making a complete circle around Chapman Lake (4 miles) by using park service roads, the breast of the dam and the public road to the boat launching / mooring area.

Directions: From Warren, PA, Take US 6 south for about 5 miles turning right (west) onto Chapman Dam Road. Follow this road to the park. Stay on the main park road, north of the lake to the very end. Trail begins there.
