The first trail of its type in the nation, this unique route climbs the hillside between the top and bottom of the famous Johnstown Inclined Plane. Along the way, hikers will find eight steel sculptures created by nationally renowned sculptor, James Wolfe, who crafted each piece using remnants produced by the local Bethlehem Steel plant.

This historical trail enables the user to start just below the breached South Fork Dam and follow the same watercourse that floodwaters took in 1889, when they surged into Johnstown and killed more than 2,000 people. The Path of the Flood provides numerous trailside markers that tell the story and enables users to visualize the scene within the Little Conemaugh River valley, which remains largely unchanged more than 120 years later.
