Chernisky Ghost Town Trail-a-thon

The Chernisky Ghost Town Trail-a-thon is an October trail event held at Duman Lake County Park in Ebensburg, Pennsylvania. This event concludes the Cambria County Trails Series, which features one event on each county trail. It utilizes the Ghost Town Trail, a route previously named a Pennsylvania Trail of the Year. Participants can select a marathon, 15-miler, 5k, adaptive-device 5k, firefighter turnout gear 5k, or the "Couch Potato 0.0k" for those preferring not to race. The longer running races conclude at Duman Lake County Park. Transportation will be available from the finish area to the marathon and 15-mile start locations. The cycling option is a relaxed 26.2-mile group ride. It begins at Duman Lake County Park and travels to the Twin Rocks trailhead, following the Ghost Town Trail and C & I Extension. Cyclists may use the aid stations designated for runners. Youth participation in the series is free, and all proceeds benefit the improvement and expansion of Cambria County trails.
