Trip Report    

Day Hike, Urban Walk - Lk Boren Pk, May Crk, Newcastle trails to De Leo Wall & back

Approached from the west along one of the many possible routes to De Leo Wall passing through forest & greenbelts. Also includes crossing Coal Creek Parkway and a short walk through Newcastle neighborhoods.

  • Road suitable for all vehicles
  • Overgrown 0.25 mi section on Viewpoint Trail #2 as we descended from De Leo Wall trail to De Leo Wall viewpoint.  Otherwise, trails easy to follow with map.  Many intersections, map needed.

Nice workout on near-town trails infrequently hiked (by the Mountaineers). Plus a photo op at the abandoned USPS mail truck. 6.4 miles, 950' elevation gain.1-20-25.jpg
