The Laurel Highlands Hiking Trail (LHHT), is one of my favorite places to hike.  In addition to being so close to home, here in Somerset County, it also has many beautiful places to see, and is not without its challenges.

On this page, I've collected my journals, and pictures from various hikes on the LHHT.  Follow the links below to join me on a lighthearted journey, along this scenic pathway which leads atop the beautiful Laurel Ridge.
