LeTort Spring Run Nature Trail, Nature trail in Carlisle, United States.

The LeTort Spring Run Nature Trail extends 2.5 miles through Carlisle Borough and South Middleton Township, following a limestone stream with gravel paths.

In 1720, French-Canadian interpreter James Le Tort established a trading post near the waterway before the arrival of Scots-Irish settlers in the region.

Dickinson College students and faculty participate in conservation activities along the trail, conducting environmental research and maintaining the surrounding watershed ecosystem.

The eight-foot-wide stone surface trail features distance markers every half-mile, interpretive signs, and multiple access points at Letort Park and Lamberton Middle School.

The trail incorporates a 4,000-square-foot native plant garden established in 2016, designed to reduce erosion and enhance the natural landscape.

Location: Carlisle
