Five Star Trail, Rail trail in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, United States
The Five Star Trail extends 7.8 miles through multiple municipalities, running parallel to the Southwestern Pennsylvania Railroad from Lynch Field in Greensburg to Youngwood.
The Westmoreland County Industrial Development Corporation acquired the corridor from Conrail in 1995, establishing a partnership between five towns to develop the recreational path.
The Youngwood Historical Museum, situated in a 1902 Pennsylvania Railroad depot along the trail, presents exhibits about local railway heritage and includes a restaurant.
Multiple access points exist along Route 119, with the primary trailhead at Lynch Field in Greensburg offering parking facilities and connections to local amenities.
The trail functions as both a recreational path and an active railroad corridor, featuring a branch that connects to Westmoreland County Community College campus.
